I always wanted a canteen.

One time I took an old nail polish remover bottle that was empty and filled it with water and drank from it.

I immediately tasted nail polish remover and spit it out. Bad Idea I guess.

I am lucky I didn't poison myself playing with my canteen.Chat Icon



This is hilarious! Chat Icon

I wanted glasses too. I took an old black "Austin Powers" looking pair of my dad's, popped out the lenses and would walk around wearing them. I guess I thought it looked "unique" and "trendy".

Little did I know I looked like a total lunatic dweeb.Chat Icon

Love this thread btw.

I also was obssessed with wallets and change purses. I have many memories of old wallets that I had, I still have wayyy too many. I have no idea why I was so obssessed with them, esp when I had nothing to put in them.Chat Icon

I desperately wanted to go to sleep away camp after seeing Parent Trap and reading a bunch of girls at summe camp type books.

Never happened.

I also randomly wanted one of those old fashioned gumball machines you see in the service merchanidse catolog.

I wanted this too and actually GOT this. Luckily there was an option where you could set it up to get the gumball without adding the coin.

It became played out very fast though so you didn't miss much.Chat Icon Esp when you run out of gumballs and your mom doesn't buy you anymore to keep it filled.Chat Icon

I don't remember a weird item that I wanted.

But, I remember that I was OBSESSED with the statue of liberty. I thought she was real. comes from those old dontate your coat commericals..give us your poor, your hungry..etc.
I wanted to be her when I grew up. I used to pose like her in pictures.

lol I wanted a cash register too.

I also wanted an electronic toy car you could sit in and drive - I still want one, though I'd probably wouldn't be able to fit in it now!

I also wanted Lemon Berbina ( sp?) perfume because Ma Ingles would flip out over it. Comes from watching too many episodes of Little House on the Praire.. does that sh%t even exist?



LOL...it DOES! My friend has Lemon Verbena hand cream that she uses (some might say) to a psychotic degree. And she too is obsessed with Little House. Chat Icon
