OFF With Their Heads!!!


Isn't she beautiful? I think so. She is located in a unisex bathroom in some restaurant/rest stop between here & Oakland. I can't even remember where this was. But, I was warned about her before entering. I didn't even have to pee, I just wanted a photo! She totally stares at you while you're on the toilet. I guess she is rigged with sensor motion detectors & she's supposed to say things like, "Stop that!" "Get out of here!", but she was broken. She has been there a while, because when I showed the picture to my mom, she said, "I've been there!!" It was when I was about 9 years old, if I am correct. (That was about 23 years ago!)

Poor gal. She's GOT to have prune fingers by now...





I saw these on our last day in Oakland while shopping with my new-found-Oakland-girlfriends. They were from a shop called "Diva's Beauty Supply".







These wig-headed beauties were from the same beauty supply shop. I scored big at this store & at 2 neighboring stores called "Angel's" & "Rainbow". I got some big earrings which most of the girls there wear. It's what I call my 'Oakland makeover'. I'll have to take a pic soon & post it one day. My husband has not commented on them yet. I have about 4 pair, so he'll have plenty to comment on.





This is my favorite one! I spotted her one night while our group had a free night in San Francisco goofing around Pier 39. She lives in a shop called 'Krazy Kaps'.



And, just a side note: I'm taking the wee-est one (Pazely/3) into the hospital tomorrow for surgery. She's getting her 2 front teeth removed. She & her sister had a bad head-bonking accident a couple months ago. I took a final "BEFORE" shot tonight of her mouth. She's gonna be the cutest toothless girl EVERS!

  2. Oh, wow, that last head reminds me of The Joker - she's almost creepy! But I guess not as creepy as that one sitting in the old tub. How weird is that?

    Hope the surgery goes well and she doesn't miss her teeth too much!

  4. I love the bathtub lady.
    Lean had to go into the hospital when she was almost two to have a tooth out. It is just now ( she's almost 6) growing in. I saved the tooth and we did the whole tooth fairy thing when it began to grow in.
    It's scary having them go through it but she was fine
