Remember These ??

My Number One Son, who is 17 and a half, was cleaning out his closet this past weekend (A Christmas Miracle) while I was away, and came across this,



stuck in the back of his closet. Since it has hot pink hair, I reckon that this particular Troll doll belonged to one of his sisters, which probably makes this troll over 20 years old. So it has survived quite a lot - the tortures of 4 children, and a nice long hibernation in the back of a dark closet. Remember playing with them, and brushing their hair?

Well, here is what the troll doll looks like now, after 5 minutes with the dog:



A Triple Amputee. Nice. Luckily Little Grim hadn't gotten too attached to it.

But notice how nice his hair looks - I brushed it before I threw it in the trash.

Oh Geez. Thank goodness the dog didn't choke.

I remember when I was in high school that my classmates had them on key chains. Wasn't my thing, but I do remember how popular they were and how fun it was to twirl them and give them funky hairstyles. :)

LA - the dog unfortunately has chewed a lot worse. Luckily we haven't had a trip to the vet because of it yet.

RT - That's right, I forgot they were on key chains, too. Now I want one.

I do remember when they were popular. Poor dog...he must of been traumatized. That pic is hilarious.
