'Giddy' was a word. 'Impatient' was another, and so was 'excited'. Some dictionaries also proposed 'woozy'. Beside being words, they also shared the property of describing Pinkie Pie after she learned a present from the Princess of the Moon was on its way.
The party pony camped in front of the Ponyville's Post Office, determined to receive her gift as soon as it arrived. She'd wait all day if she needed to… and she did. Morning became noon, which slowly morphed into afternoon and then evening. Pinkie stood vigilant watch, seconds feeling like days as she starved and thirsted.
At 8 o'clock sharp, the mail pony left, locking her office for the night. Pinkie was defeated, devastated by the lack of gifts in her postage box. She made her way home, her mane normally so frizzy deflated in her endless sorrow. On her doorstep, Pinkie discovered a box, a note attached to it:
"Pinkie Pie, I came this morn to bring thy gift in person. Alas, thy was not home, so I leave it at thy door.
Thy Princess of the Night"
Pinkie did not get to try her new PJs that night, for the simple reason that she gasped so hard she fainted. She awoke the next day in Ponyville Hospital, wearing a horrid, itchy hospital gown instead.
