Gumball (T.G.E. - Part 28 of 40)

I have been asked by Kim and Jason to take part in their Adultitis Escape Plan, a 40-day plan to become more childlike (not childish)
and to reduce stress and prevent dullness, depression and [insert

Dreary-ness, that begins with ‘D’.
The twenty-eighth task: Buy something that captures the spirit of childhood for under $5.00 (including tax).

No, not the two keyboards, or the mouse (that’s just my desk). I bought that bright orange gumball at the bottom of the picture, it cost 20c (also pictured). I’m chewing it now.
I always wanted to get these when I was a kid, and I can count the number of times I did on one hand. With fingers to spare. Anyway, I got one now.
Here’s a closeup:
