sisalikY'all. I won Ebay. I am now the proud owner of a wind-up Soviet wrist gnome.
It was advertised as a kid's watch and is the same diameter as a nickel. The strap is tiny. It winds up, so my mutant personal energy forcefield won't nuke batteries. (Seriously. Longest I've ever had a wristwatch last is 4 months.)
I need a name for it! Suggest things!*
Between this, the fact that I carry stormtroopers in my backpack, the fact that I carry a backpack and not a purse at my age, and the fact that I am always given kids' meals without asking for them -- I've just accepted that I'm never going to be taken seriously, for any reason, anywhere, ever.
Eh, there are worse things. Like being taken seriously, anywhere, ever. That'd be funny.
*I'm not calling it David; I know too many of them and that'd lead to weirdness and confusion. I'm not naming it Rasputin either.
