Can you believe this... I'm an 8 inch bear that has finally climbed his way out of the toy box and into the real world. This technology stuff is just like so exciting... where do you start?
Well, I decided to find myself some new friends. Believe me being in the toy box is not all its cracked up to be. I don't like Barbie, talk about the green eyeshaddowed monster, she's such a pushy cow when Ken's around, and GI Joe, nice muscles but absolutly no conversational skills. He spends half his day working out, and the other half playing solders with action man, the most you ever get out of him is.... well let's not go there, just yet.
Since I have been out of the toy box I have made some great new friends. Some are a little strange, some rather percular, and others very straight-laced, but in all they're good fun to be around.
This month they have really helped me out though. I said I wanted to do something to help change the world. The looked and looked until they discovered Movember. Sounds fabulous don't it? All you have to do is grow a mustache and raise money for men's health, I mean how hard can that be?
A little harder than I thought thats for sure. First off my other toy friends don't have any money... they work their asses off for the big toy companies so they can earn quid, but what do we get in return. Nothing, nadda, zip, zilch... we get thrown in a box and sold off to the nearest brat - that's gratitude for you. So like I was saying I made some new friends .
Next problem, how does an 8 inch 100 percent polly filled fibre bear grow a mo for Movember... easy you beg one of you new friends to pull out their hair strand by strand and give it to you every time you get a donation for the Foundation - Was so excited I already got $50.00 so that's like a million hairs! Can't wait to Tweet that.
I really do like being out of the toy box - new friends and a cause. I really feel like I'm going to change the world. I know no one will read my blog but that's ok, after all who would really want to listen to the rantings and toy box philosophy of an 8 inch bear.
If you do want to listen though, feel free to send me an email, ask me questions, friend me on facebook and check out the causes I support, or tweet me on twitter. But in the mean time find out about what's happening for Movember in your country... If you don't have it going on there contact one of the Movember Crew to see how you get it on.
Any way until my next time big bear hugs
