I just head to buy it



I saw her sitting on a shelf amongst a dozen sisters. Discounted said her ticket. It wasn't a surprise - most of her neighbors had lost noses and other polystyrene features in somewhat mysterious circumstances. She on the other hand looked quite intact ( ... so far as one can say this about a disembodied head).

I couldn't resist; I knew she'd be awfully useful. Even if only time would tell for what (here's hoping that Roswell don't ask for her return).

In the meantime, at least I can say I really got a-head in my sewing this weekend.

  2. So how is the head going to help with the sewing?

    Great minds think alike?

    2 heads are always better than one?

  3. All seems completely normal to me. I brought a pair of right legs home on a London tube once. They have since followed us to Australia. After nine years I still haven't found a use for them (other than bewildering visitors) but I wouldn't take 'em back for quids.

  4. I think you should let Argy and Bargy loose with the head and your makeup stash.... just to prettify her a little.

  6. Gah..dd is on my case to buy her one of these. I am refusing to show her this, and thus confirm that it can, in fact, actually be done. :p
