Oh you Star Wars geeks
Such wonderful memories. And I realized that I was a spoiled brat when I was growing up because I had about ALL of that stuff.
Now ... I do have a beef. I had the Princess Leia Barbie-sized action figure.. the one that had synthetic hair.
These directions.... SUCKED ARSE!
You could NOT put her hair back in those buns. It was physcially impossible. So my Leia ... she had long brown hair and no longer looked authentic.
But guess who I still have in my possession...
Him.
I remember looking in the bottom of our closet when I was seven or eight ... right before Christmas. I remember finding all three of them ... shiny and new in their boxes.
And I remember, like a moron, spilling it to my Mom that I found them.... and then tried to back-peddle like I hadn't seen them.
Yeah. Proud moment right there.

I'm a mom of three peeps ... Queen Bee, The Door Man, and the Chandelier Monkey, and wife to Ace, the Helpful Hardware Man. I created this space to get away from the people known as my inlaws, and because life with three kids and a hubby is all Unexplored Territory.
The nine-year-old who seems to be growing older every minute, has an opinion and a comment for everything, and has a true servant's heart.
The seven-year-old who loves the organization of things, will someday be someone's therapist because of his kind soul, and will more than likely be living with us until he is 40 years old.
The five-year-old with the 13-year-old attitude, who has a dictator's personality, asks you to watch her all the time and say "hold on" to keep your attention, and will someday come home on the back of some dude's motorcycle with 10 tatts and a body piercing or two.
The man of the house, the fixer of things, the winner of prizes, and the only person in his family to escape the South.
Memories from childhood
Why it sucks to be my manager right now...

Big ditto here. I never got Leia's hair back in buns either.
Man, I wish I still had her!
I still have trading cards. I never got the action figures, only my brother, the little twerp. No jealousy there, noooooo.
Barbie's so were not my thing...Princess Leia or otherwise. But I can imagine that once you took her buns out, that was it. (Oh, that sounds so dirty, eh? LOL)
