Scenes from my real-life

No matter how old I get, no matter what I actually came into the store for in the first place - if there is a toy section I'm hitting it stat to take my inner 6 year old window shopping. I am seeing what action figures they got in, I am reading their stats on the back of the package, I'm squeezing their legs to make their fists punch, I'm pushing every button that says 'try me', I'm scoping out the playset displays and best of all - when the staff looks at me strange I just smile and say - "It's okay, I'm looking for a gift for my nephew." Oh make no mistake, they're not fooled. They know deep down inside that my nephew is just an excuse at best especially after I wave them off with a toy Mjolnir and an Optimus Prime mask strapped over my face.
