I don’t drink alcohol much, but I can go buy toys. Lots of toys. Toys I always wanted as a kid, but we were too poor to buy. A Mrs. Beasly doll; the extremely large pack of crayons; the really good Barbie head for hair styling…

Do they still make those Barbie heads? I want one. I’m telling my roommate that’s what I want for Christmas. (I got her an EZ-Bake Oven last year.)
And the 96-box with the sharpener is the only way to go.
Yeah, cept for me it’s a $180 remote-controlled helicopter (http://www.rchobbies.org/images/EFLH1200-450.jpg). I could have never dreamed of one of those when I was a kid.
Actually I don’t think the battery technology was good enough back then, all we had was those crappy helicopters and airplanes that flew around and around on a wire, and you held the D-Cell battery cannister in your hand.
I got my husband a rc Superman for Christmas. I’m hoping it’s as cool as your typical rc helicopter or plane - it looks kinda lame, but it’s Superman, and he’s all about the Superman.
I’m pretty sure you can still buy those big Barbie heads - Toyr ‘r’ Us probably has them.
I take it back. I wasn this more. Just the other day, I was lamenting the fact that I have no Superman action figures.
Seriously, I have more fun at 30 than I did at 10, now that I think about it. But that bill-paying and working stuff still sucks.
It may sound odd and it certainly has its downsides but I find having kids is about the only redeeming quality of being an adult. I had my first 9 months ago and its completely changed my life. Sure, there is much more responsibility and in many ways things are harder but the good outweighs the bad. In fact, having kids can make you relive your own childhood to some extent.
