Every winter I’m reminded that within my body are millions of lightning storms that try to escape when I touch anything metal.

Due to the dry air and my mutant skin, everything in winter shocks me. Whenever I touch a metal doorknob or even a piece of foil I get shocked with enough static electricity to kill a weaker mammal. As such, I spend most of winter scared of touching things — my power too great, my magic too strong.

If I were to touch a 9-volt battery in winter, the resulting electrical phenomena would send most DeLoreans back in time and grant wishes to children who dream of being alone for Christmas. It’s that powerful.

Sure, maybe it doesn’t hurt like stepping on a nail or drinking bees, but it’s still an unpleasant experience.

If you see me during the winter months standing outside a store, staring at the metal door handle, know that I’m building up the courage necessary to hurt myself with mini-lightning and I’m worried that this electric shock might be the one that sends me back to my home realm. But I’ve said too much.

Luckily, plastic toys never hurt me…unless I step on them or use them as toothbrushes.

What will today’s calendar bring forth?

A Water Bucket and Water Skin!

The water of this water bucket is a separate piece…and a cool piece at that, with a rich blue color and genuine water texture. I like it twice as much as the bucket itself. The water skin is okay. I’m sure if I were trapped on Femur Island, a drink of water would be greatly appreciated.

Something else happened today. I learned that the basket from a few days ago can fit on Jonas Cannoncube’s head.

New hat!

Robot Snowman quickly wanted to trade hats, because that’s his hobby.

Fearful that hat switching would ruin the evil plan, Hezzy begrudgingly participated in the hat trade.

Day 11 Rating: 3.2 out of 5 (Points added for the water piece. It’s not as wonderful as a clear Lego piece, but it’s pretty great.)

See you tomorrow!
