We are webkinz-addicted here. All three of us have Webkinz and keep up our own little worlds on a fairly regular basis. I could say that I have one to keep my finger on the pulse of what the kids like - but that would be somewhat less than honest. Truth is - the games on there are about all I can handle - Cash Cow being my super-fave. What is really funny is that Ron has one. Actually, he has two. For months he ignored his - until recently he found a game on there that he likes (I think it is Zingoz POP or something to that effect) and has been on there periodically.
So - one evening a week or so ago, I walk in to the living room and there is Ron on his MacBook Pro surfing the web happily. He says to me "I think I am going to be a farmer." My brain immediately assumes he has lost his damn mind. I mean seriously... he just gets this big promotion to Director and he wants to be a farmer?! But I say "Like with corn?" and he says "And pumpkins and watermelon". Clearly - he has given this a lot of thought. "Oh - okay" I say as I return to the kitchen to quietly mull over what could be going on with my normally sensible husband.
About 15 minutes later he comes to the kitchen and says "You can buy an outdoor room - right? A yard?" "For what dear?" "For my farm." And then I realize - he means for his Webkinz! Holy CRAP! All along I think he is talking about a MAJOR life change when really he has found a way to earn KinzCash on Webkinz... He grows fruit and veggies on Webkinz and sells them at the "W Shop"... THIS is what he meant when he said he wanted to be a farmer.
Huge sigh of relief...

LMAO!!
I have been meaning to try it out again since I got high speed.
I thought I read some where that you can buy 'virtual' Webkinz (without buying the actual stuffed animal) but I can't seem to find it anywhere.
Just wait til he discovers World Of Warcraft...
Also that is a very impressive garden considering all that snow!! LOL
Marvin - not his thing. He plays on his Xbox and stuff, but he is not into World of Warcraft for reasons that I don't pretend to understand...
Shana - you can get virtual pets at the Webkinz eStore... and yeah - I didn't even know you could HAVE a garden in the "winter", LOL... Shoot - I pretty much emptied my garden once the snow came... took the table and chairs in etc... dork. Uber-dork! :D
OMG!! Too finfunny !!
