Most action figures these days have one or two accessories. He came with 37! (And quick rebuttal to those who mock my collectibles: Those accessories sell for about $4 a piece.)
The reason I have been thinking about him is not because I want to get him out of storage (I do, though, him and trusty steed Buckskin) but because I have accessories, too.
And I don't mean belts and jewelry. I think I have two belts and one ring, none of which I wear.
I asked a colleague why she was not at a work-sponsored workshop I thought she was attending. She told me, and asked why I wasn't.
Too many accessories, I said, both quantity than mass.
I have crap that I need if I go somewhere.
A lift, shower chair, hearing aids, pills, cushion covers, urinals, accessible van, dog stuff ... and that's just of the top of my head and just the disability-related stuff. Also only the inanimate stuff. I need human help, too.
All that, and I don't even get a trusty steed.
