Ah, the days when LEGOs came without the imagination included! I get so frustrated with them now because you have to play with them the way they think you should play with them. And the girl-ification of them has me a bit miffed but I know it's just a tactic to garner more money going into the holiday buying season.

I never had enough to build cities so used boxes for that. I still have this thing about boxes... like I should be using them for something instead of recycling them. It's particularly bad at work where I'm constantly carting flattened boxes to the bins. All those cities... reduced to rubble!
