New Arrivals, Incomings, ETC
May. 29th, 2026 06:02 pmToday was kind of a big mail day! I had two boxes being held for pickup, as well as TWO lockers full of pakidges! Lots of Happy Meal toys, including The Little Mermaid Golden Toy Set, which I have been wanting for years and probably decades. It was released in 1997, and I feel like I might have been aware of it even way back then?
So yeah, that is a huge deal.
I am also very grateful to have Teen to Super Life Supergirl again (I specifically remember donating her in 2024, which I really did not want to do), and I treated myself to a 2013 Wicked Witch Happy Meal toy. I bought her alone for reasons made of obvious, but of course the other five toys from this set are also very cute.
And I am almost literally fully completely DONE with all of the purchasings for Mermaid Bathroom!
At this point, my only incomings are . . .
eBay
* one set of ten Teenie Beanie Babies from 1996
* 1997 Happy Meal Toys: Animal Pals (complete set of six!)
* Burger King Kids Club GLO FORCE (complete set of five!)
* six-book set of George O'Connor's Olympians
* another Happy Meal toy Ariel & Flounder
* complete set of Space Jam Happy Meal toys (I had at least two as a kid and loved them)
* and for now, that's it! --- although I have paid in advance for issues 2 and 3 of Absolute Green Arrow to be delivered when they get released!
Walmart
* restock: one bottle of sandalwood & coastal breeze hand soap
* that's it!
Amazon
* one more two-pack of tiny shelves! (at least one of these will be used to display Happy Meal toys on top of the dresser, right next to the one that is currently home to some Happy Meal Barbies --- and then as of today I also keep my new Happy Meal Wicked Witch on top, but other than her that space is reserved as a drop zone for my glasses)
* two books from someone I've been following on yootoob for a while. She has a series of shorts called Rich People Shit Us Poors Haven't Heard Of, as well as lots of other similar content that I watch all the time, but I only just recently found out that she has also written a book! And not just one, but TWO! Wow!
* restock: DayQuil capsules
* one pair of mismatched fun socks
* new trash can for Mermaid Bathroom
* bags for the new trash can
* box of batteries
* two four-packs of cooling towels
* basket for toilet tank
* new super comfortable work shoes! (genuinely so fucking excited to get these)
* fancy mop
And that's everything!
Until my next purchase, of course.
I do need to order more KPDH blind box toys For Science . . . very soon, but maybe I could wait until this weekend is over?
As much as I do (obviously) love the Valentine & Spelldon two-pack, I am not completely sure if I want to spend the money on a pre-order right now. But maybe I should! But, I don't know! I could use that money for other stuff---
Either way, that is enough shopping for the moment. I need to unwind and watch something, then read something until bed.
