The little kid side of me was OVERJOYED today!

My 1985 Grimace toy and I

Today had been a very lazy un-exciting day... I woke up early to tutor my Grandmother on using the Internet. After that was done I came home had lunch and looked over the new garage sale advertisements for this weekend.

Then I decided I would like to go and check out what our local liquidation store had got in and pick up another jar of barrel cured pickles *mMmmm*

Figuring nothing fantastic would happen I left the house in giant sweatpants! *lol* So we head to the store only to get there 2 minutes before closing *BOOH*

So I ask my guy if he would like to go get a ice cream cone at McDonalds.

Well THANK GOODNESS the liquidation store was closed or what happened next would have never happened. We were sitting in the drive thru lineup when out walks through the door Birdie!! I seriously *GASPED* rather loud. My guy said "What?" I pointed to Birdie outside the front of McDonalds.

Seconds later... I see a big furry purple thing coming out the door! IT MUST BE MY FAVORITE McDonald's character... IT WAS! It was Grimace!!

This time I seriously *Squealed* "Thank God my man knows I am weird.." Cause had I been on a first date or something I am sure that would have been the end of it! *hahah* After Grimace Hamburglar walked out!!!

*OH MYYYY* How exciting. The line was sort of long but I didn't care!! I was watching Birdie, Grimace & Hamburglar. We got up to the speaker ordered our ice creams and I told my guy... "We have to turn around!!! We need to go back to the parking lot!! I WANT A PICTURE with Grimace! So he pulls the vehicle around we get back in front of the building to which he says: "You know it's just kids getting their pictures taken right??" I replied: "I don't care!!!!" I LOVE THEM!! *bwhahahah*

So as we are walking towards them I said "I know I am not a little kid but can I please get my picture taken with you?" The workers helping the characters said "Yes of course!" So I was happier than a kid in a candy shop! I skipped up and PROUDLY got my picture taken with them! Grimace is what really mattered but the fact I got all 3 was even better!
Just the fact that I blogged about this within hours of it happening just goes to show how truly excited I really was... and am. I hope my future kids don't mind when I rent a bouncy castle for their Birthdays and I AM the one jumping around inside screaming and yelling and having a blast. I hope they realize I might just get more use out of their toys then they do. Heck probably half of the time I will secretly purchase it for myself and just let them play with it. *Shhh don't tell!*

I don't like alot of seriousness... I like FUN! How often do you let your inner child out?? I know some of you do more than others *lol*
