The Joy of Heads

No boss, this is just a box of jumbo paper clips. Honest.Yesterday was just another normal day at work. Actually, it was a little better.

I didn't bring a lunch because Pizza Pizza was celebrating pizza being in Canada, officially, for 100 years. For this celebration, they were offering their large pizza slices for 100 cents. What a deal! So Jodster and I went across the street, and filled our tummies for $2.14 each. I suspect he was still hungry after his 2 slices, but they filled me up the same as 2 Big Macs and a large fries does.

Later in the afternoon, my day got even better. My package arrived!

Typically, the packages we have delivered at work are work-related. They are boxes of markers & highlighters, paper & envelopes, toner cartridges and photocopier parts. You know....normal stuff. But me? I had a head delivered to me. A head in a box.

About two weeks ago I ordered a 'Rising Ghoul' aka 'Groundbreaker' from a Halloween/latex prop website, HorrorFactory.com. I have ordered from them in the past, and due to their incredible attention to detail, I was excited to order from them again.

(To see what I ordered last year, click here)

The girl who brought the box over to me was totally intrigued by the shipping description, "Latex Halloween Prop" and refused to return to her duties until I showed her the head. Boy did it feel great to inject a bit of bloody-head-joy into someone else's life.
