Whales of Woe
Look at what me and Dou found at the Micheal's craft store today! 10 points to whoever can figure out how many of these adorable whales we found within the mounds of miscellaneous, one dollar +, mildly entertaining junk. (Yes, we had to dig through them. And yes. It was worth it.)
The story is somewhat complex really (it's not). We were rooting through the goods that the 1 dollar sales aisle could offer, when Dou came across this adorable whale.
Whale reference of cuteness below:
(They have magnetic FINS. So they're holding hands. They're names are: David and Spencer)
She was overjoyed. The inaccurate proportions of their eyes (overly large and dark and oddly positioned) made these wonky whales, incredibly adorable. Especially when they made this face of frustration:
"HRRRRRRRRRRGHHHH!"
We figured that there had to be more of these things- or animals equally as cute.
No luck.
So we went and asked a worker to see if she could locate them, but she just lead us back to the same aisle, oblivious. Then, as I rifled through some more junk, I came across ANOTHER whale. You could imagine MY excitement. (At this point we discovered their magnetic fins.)
There had to be more. Dou rummaged around and found two extra. Kept one and gave one to me. Later as we browsed around the store we found out where they originated. In an aisle among the fluffy bears and miniature rabbits. How did we know? She found another whale, along with other animals with magnetic paws. (It was the last one though, mind you.)
Quite possibly the highlight of our night, these whales.
I realized I gave you the answer to my previous question. So I withdrawal those ten points.
