Your story is incomplete.
What was the toy?
Does it do something?
I went for drinks with an engineer last night, and he doesn't understand how coasters work, so don't feel bad

It was a scary little airplane with a neon head, and the wings and tail were all curved and wonky, which threw me off. Real airplanes don't have neon heads, they're not aerodynamic.
I know how coasters work. Mostly. But I didn't learn that in engineering. Oh wait, yes I did, I didn't drink at the bar till then. Okay, I got nothing.

Oh wherefore art thou, Amy?
I have an aching in my loins that can only be cured by your sweet thoughts and/or the most rare lotions and creams of Indonesia.

"aching in my loins"? Is that from Richard III ??
I'm pretty sure "lotions and creams of Indonesia" is Sylvia Plath
