I'm such a whimp. I went to Walmart today to do some shoping, and lo and behold, there was a Merry action figure waiting for me. Just as I was about to reach for it, another obviously obsessed fan took it right out from under me. All I could do was watch with my mouth hanging open as she walked away.
Instead of standing up for myself and saying, "Excuse me, I was just reaching for that, could you please give it back before I break your greedy, obnoxiose fingers," I didn't do anything. Probably a good thing, in hind sight,but still...
Oh, well. I did find a Pippin and Aragorn action figure, and they are now sitting on my computer, happily chatting at each other and waiting for me to write about them.

I feel kind of guilty now... Today I was in Toys'R'Us and I was looking around at the different LOTR things. I went back to the front and there were 2 Merry figures... one of which I got...

Oh, cruel fate, that denies me my Merry doll! I shall just have to seek elsewhere, and this time, when I find him, I shall dive, dive, dive! Um, I mean, calmly walk up and take him as fast as I can.

Ironic, eh?

But what happened to you almost happened to me!!! I had put Merry, Frodo, and Faramir down on the counter and was talking to my mom, waiting for the cashier to get the total figured out...AND THEN THIS GUY TRIED TO STEAL MERRY!!! I just stepped up to him and pushed Merry and Co. Towards the cashier...smiled...and became supremely protective.

Hmmm, Merry is most popular today, isn't he?

[luv2hobbits.livejournal.com]

Always!!

Oh!!! I almost forgot!! Good luck next time!! You can nab Merry, we all know you can!!

How rude! I would have tackled her to the ground and wrested poor Merry from her grip.

Actually I wouldn't, but it's a nice image anyway! ^_~
