November 8th marked the 20th anniversary of the day I bought "Ferman", my favorite stuffed animal. It occurred to me today that although I had planned this blog entry several months ago, I became distracted about various things when November came and completely forgot about it.
Most of my childhood was rather unpleasant (to put it mildly), but my menagerie was one of the positive highlights. Not that anybody around me back in the day ever understood or appreciated this (it was/is just another of my numerous flaws, as far as they're concerned), but my stuffed animals provided an essential way for me to escape from all the crap going on at home and they remain extremely important to me.
