I am unnerved

I had been searching for a Fone Bone plushie forever. I found one a few weeks ago and I was excited beyond belief. But now having him feels a little bit weird simply because I am known as Fone Bone on Toon Zone and I identify myself with my avatar. I hold him up to me and it's like having a plushie of myself. It's unnerving.

I have LOTS of different plushies named for or sharing names with people in my life but having one that shares MY name is weird. I still love him as much as all of my other animals but this is going to take a LONG time to get used to.

Fone Bone, never being tempted to name a plushie Merlin Missy ever again.

In other news my father got back from a trip to the hospital. He had his gall-bladder removed. Sorry, I haven't really spoken about this but I'm still processing this. My dad is getting up there in years and him having medical problems (especially ones involving operations) isn't something I really want to think about. I'm glad he's recovering now though.
