Off With Her Head!

When I was a kid my parents had this African head statue that used to scare the bejesus out of me. It chased me all around the house, appeared at the foot of my bed, whispered in my ear and in general terrorized me. Needless to say, it was valuable so my parents wouldn't put it away or get rid of it. When we moved out of the country, it miraculously didn't arrive with everything else. To this day I fear it will knock on my door and find me. I know it's looking.

  4. Ha-ha! Don't worry! Most of these beheaded characters are still looking friendly (ok, not all). Show them your post next to last. They could suffer the same fate.

    Thank you for showing my 'Retro' doll! Interesting blog. I will subscribe.
