An Unexpected Party

(I am in the kitchen washing dishes when I noticed the neighbours’ daughter about to knock on the front door of my unit. I answer the door to see what she wants.)

Neighbour’s Daughter: “Can I come in and see your My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic toys?!”

Me: “Sure, why not.”

(As soon as she enters, several other kids show up and follow her inside. One of them is even carrying a bag full of ‘My Little Pony’ toys. They stay for about half an hour, singing songs, eating food, looking through my collection, and talking about pony videos they had seen on the Internet. Once they were gone I texted my best friend what had happened.)

Me: “I now know how Bilbo Baggins felt when Gandalf threw that dwarf rave party.”

Best Friend: “What?!”

Me: “I was in my pj’s and robe, too. I keep expecting them to come back and make me sign a contract.”
