reindeer

im not entirely sure where this came from. for some reason i think it might have been from a fast food joint as a christmas toy with a kids meal. its basically a beenie baby reindeer before there was such a thing as a beenie baby. im not sure why, but i really loved this thing! i would spend hours on end playing with it, trying to get it to stand, throwing it up in the air and catching it. i was pretty young, so i must have been easily ammused. this was not actually my original reindeer, i think this one is actually my sisters. my original one somehow got ripped. one of its legs got ripped and the little plastic beans poored out. i was so sad, so i made a splint for his leg out of cardboard and rubberbands. i was a strange child...
