Good day Steemians! I hope you are all having a beautiful week. Now hold on to your hats because things are about to get squishy!
New Community. Awesome People.
My recent application to @thealliance was approved and I am now a kid in the playground meeting some awesome Steemians. It turns out I was turtley enough after all.
About a week ago, I was chatting in the playground with fellow Steemian @leathertinker when she told me how her daughter loved my avatar, which was a cool psychedelic looking sugar skull that @calumam made for me. She told me that her daughter loved skulls, skeletons and demons too... I was immediately taken back and remembering how as a child I was thought of as weird and creepy for liking dark and morbid things... I always had a fascination that I had to hide. I thought something was wrong with me. I was very happy to find out that @leathertinker allows her daughter to express herself and she told me about this 'squishy guts skeleton doll' that she bought for her.
'Squishy guts skeleton doll'???? Shut up and take my money!!
After a quick transaction and quick shopping trip by @leathertinker, the doll was in the mail. I was so excited! It didn't take long to get here. The package arrived yesterday and I was a very happy girl!!!
As soon as I opened the package, I took everything apart to see all the squishy parts. It displays part of a skeleton and examples of muscular structure... and squishy parts!!! Squishy brains and lungs and kidneys and so much more!!
And when I say squishy, I mean squishy. Some people may think the feel of it is a bit off putting, but it's really funky and fantastic!! I played all afternoon; looking and squeezing and playing with all the squishy parts. It took me forever to put this thing back together and I'm pretty sure the stomach may be where the heart should be.
This is the coolest thing, and @leathertinker is a kick-ass Steemian who I would like to thank for going out of her way to get this for someone she hardly knows. Kudos to her for allowing her daughter to be who she is and realizing that little obsessions like this are not bad.
I shall call him squishy and he shall be mine, and he shall be my squishy.
And now it’s on my Amazon wish list :) That’s so cool! Love it!
Lucky girl! Enjoy the squishiness!
XXXOOO ~T
Yay!!! Get it @tamala it really is awesome... but you have to promise that you will spend all afternoon being a kid and playing when you get it. It was soooo nice to not adult for a little while and have some childhood fun!! ❤
There used to be this REALLY cool toy - it was like an alien - but it had all these human organs inside with goo!!!!! like - slime! hahahaha

hehehehehe such a cool post @monchhichi23!!! don't ya just love presents in the mail!?!?!? I have 2 posts to do about presents in the mail too!!!! PRESENTS ARE FUN!!!! <3
Ya know Dreemie I remember the alien with the goo.. and as an adult walking through the toy store I've seen so many cool toys that we would have loved as kids.. with goo and squishy things lol ... I love that you and I are so much alike, I'm not sure if that will ever stop blowing my mind ... everyday we find out something new and I'm loving it!!
hahahhhaha yeah - my brother had it - but I AM THE ONE who played with it!!!!
i loved dissecting in Biology too hehehe
That's crazy cool. Totally threw me off with the title and seeing Dory up there LMAO
Lol.. crazy cool is right @enginewitty .. this thing is freaking wicked!! I did my job right if you got thrown off by the title and Dory.. you never know what to expect when you step into my world hahaha
I would have played with you all afternoon too!
Ok that sounded wrong, I mean with the squishy gut doll.
I'm not that much into skulls - especially since one of my internship jobs involved extracting whole brains from mice skulls almost on a daily basis, but I do love the brain! And human anatomy and physiology!
What a cool way for kids to learn through a fun toy .
Hahaha @kchitrah... Isn't funny what sounds wrong when we get older? You wouldn't have thought twice about that statement as a kid!! And I just learned something very interesting about you!! So let me see if I got this right... you extract brains from little mice skulls... ok so, thats really freaking morbid and cool!!! I would love to hear more about this!!
So true! Ahh, the joys of childhood!
Hahaha @monchhichi23 we should take this off the blockchain. Will be happy to share in our chat or DM. Boys might take it to the next level gore hahaha.
I am so very happy that I could bring joy to you by shipping you a squishy guts skeleton doll. It is an awesome toy and I'm glad you have one now! <3
You're the best @leathertinker!! I had no idea how this was gonna be.. I was really impressed with all the parts.. really awesome!
