Scruffy the Octopus is one of my favorite possessions that I have accumulated from Korea. Awhile ago Kat and I went to the Coex Aquarium. We saw the fish and the turtles and the sharks and then were spat out into the gift store, and this marketing ploy worked. I like Scruffy-- not only because they took the slimiest, funkiest sea creature they could and made it into a plush toy-- but also because they made this plush toy a puppet. You can insert you hand into Scruffy and manipulate his tentacles. How cool is that? Right now Scruffy sits atop of the gumdo sword guarding my apartment.
cute! how's it going, Nay? are you excited to come home yet? Still in the running... :)
