Susan in TN Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 My prayers for thee leadeth me To the ends of the earth. But yea, my hope faileth at Walmart, And Target, And Brilliant Sky Toys And Barnes & Noble (though I was going there anyway) And Toys R Us And Walgreens, For surely mine eyes searched for thee Even while waiting for the antibiotic. My journey continues to the uttermost parts For shalt the hopes of dd8 also fail? For a "Squinkie Multipack" is the only desire of her heart. She yearneth not for a pony Nor a motorized Barbie Jeep, Nor an X-Box, Nor an iPhone, Nor any other pricey gift which cannot be obtained. Show me thy path, And I shall walk in it.

Mergath Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Make haste, and get thee to Amazon For surely they shall have what thou seekest, mayhap with free shipping if thou art speedy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsuga Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 O would that I had more likes, for the pleasing fragrance of this thread, but my likes have been made into mist like water in the desert, and I make my admiration known with replies.

Cinder Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 May thy path be ever straight That leadeth thee to Squinkie-dom. And may thy footsteps never falter For thine heart is pure And noble of purpose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan in TN Posted December 20, 2014 Author Share Posted December 20, 2014 Make haste, and get thee to Amazon For surely they shall have what thou seekest, mayhap with free shipping if thou art speedy. Lo, the Amazon hath asked,Doth thou desirest Series Seven On the third day hence? And I answered in kind, Yea and amen. Hope stirs within, And we sleep in peace, For the Hive knoweth no bounds.

lollie010 Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 I rememberest fondly mine days wherest in thy squinkies lieth beneath mine evergreen tree as an offering for my offspring in the fleeting years of youth. Surely, out of mine bounty, I may bindeth up mine excess and delivereth unto thy household. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WTMCassandra Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Yea, verily, I had heard naught about Squinkies, Nor had my lips uttered their name, When, lo, my eyes beheld this thread, And therefore, my day was made. My cup runneth over with thanksgiving And joy that The Hive aboundeth With hilarious and esteemed personages Of whom I am not worthy. Rejoice, boardies, for the Squinkies have been found, and ordered, And all is right with the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Lulu* Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Yet in the midst of great rejoicing entered the Dread Hath the soothsayer consulted the charts? Would the elements be stirred by the great sky beast? Would the Amazon be thwarted in its quest to bring forth the Squinkies? All fell still waiting for a sign And then with a joyous broadcast the servant of the weather shouted "fear not" "For the rains shall not freeze, blocking the path of the Amazon" Peace welled up, Dread was cast out And there was again much rejoicing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiberia Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Verily, I, too, heard naught of these Squinkies. Know I, from the days of yor: The Zoobles, The Barbie, The Pet Shop, The LOTR Action Figures, The Loom of Rainbow, The Harry of Potter. Panic swells in my bosom, I, the mother of a "tween" girl. Yea, a panic even now comes upon me. Mightn't my proginy desire these Rare and hitherto unknown treasures? To google, I go, with a heavy heart, With dread anew, Friends, think kindly of me...

Hearest thou about yon Shopkins? Behold, Season 2 has come, season 1 shall soon pass away. They are plenteous at fairest Target. Nay, overpriced at esteemed Amazon. Yet, verily, I too am a mother of a "tween" girl, Even a "tween to be." Fear not, O mother most brave. 'Tis yet still time for such rare treasures To make an appearance At thine humble abode, A mere five days hence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan in TN Posted December 22, 2014 Author Share Posted December 22, 2014 Behold, there appeareth on the front porch A small chestnut box. In stealth it came; Quietly, like the snowflake in the forest. Quietly, in stealth, it is hidden in the depths Of my closet. Rejoice, for the hope that was once lost, Has now been found.

*Lulu* Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 And they marveled at the wonder that was the Amazon For the small chestnut box had arrived unharmed It was not drenched, nor was it roasted Even the girl with locks of gold declared it right And so the news spread: The Amazon is mighty and sure footed And the Hive fears no challenge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiberia Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 O! the joy O happy day O happy happy day! For the arrival of thy Squinkies Maketh our hearts sing and jubilate! And, if thou cans't bear it, More good tidings do I bring Hiveward: Mine daughter, mine own "tween" Last night thus spake, "Mom, I desireth not Squinkies. I desireth Lego." (checketh) "I desireth books." (checketh) "I desireth a living mouse." (nay, never, sorry) And so, the sweet bliss of this season Cometh upon our abode this day. Content we are, even in our Squinkie-less-ness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
