W back again and I got a big scare this morning. The talking Tick action figure, that my friend T got for me way back when we were roommates in college, didn't work this morning. For the first time in over 12 years I pressed the button on his back, and none of his witty sayings came out. I open up his battery case and one of the batteries had leaked all over his insides. Luckily a little baking soda and some elbow grease cleaned him up and got him working again.
Can't believe that those batteries lasted 12 years. Can't believe the toy has lasted 12 years and E can't believe that she has to hear Tick quotes as often as she does. (or has to see it sitting on our computer desk) Oh well, boys and their toys.
So do you have any toys or mementos that you just can't let go?
