I have 20 squishy toys at my desk.

I have 20 squishy toys at my desk.
3 pigs
2 cows
1 hippo
1 crocodile
1 blue shark with a really funny grin
1 fish (it's really pretty)
1 glass of Guinness
2 Stars
1 world
1 basketball
1 golf ball
2 lemons
1 smiley face
1 big red triangle and
1 construction hat

I just finished cleaning my desk. Dust always tends to build up so I try to make it a point to at least move everything and clean once a year. I figure I have been at this job for long enough, and since I have nothing better to do... It seemed like a good time to clean.
I realized, in doing this, that I have way to many toys. However, there are some that I cannot part with at this time. Like "Mr. Wonderful." Someone in my group thought it would be a great joke to get me this doll. I don't think so. I would never want a man to say those things unless he meant them and I really don't see that happening. And I am not one of those man hater women who think that men can do no right. I'm not bitter. I figure people are people and that is just the way it goes. Why blame an entire gender? So "Mr. Wonderful" isn't for me. I would just throw him away, except that the person that gave him to me would probably get mad. Considering the state of affairs concerning that person right now, I don't think such a move would be wise. I would just give it back to her, if I didn't think that would offend her even more, because it seems like the kind of thing she secretly wanted but couldn't justify buying for herself. Me on the other hand, now I am someone who needed this... whatever.
besides the squishy toys and "Mr.Wonderful" I have a good collection of slinkys. I like my slinkys. You can never have to many. I have 8. 7 are plastic, one is metal. I play with the metal one the most. It makes me happy.
so really, there aren't too many toys that I would get rid of. The wind up nose isn't mine, though it seems to have found a home with the windup ball and the windup dancing leiderhosen. I would get rid of the pooping pig though. I really don't need a pig that poops jelly beans. It just isn't right.

One hour till I go home... again... this is really getting to be painful. At least I'm not coming in on Friday. With nothing to do... I am starting to go crazy...
