Last year, during the Christmas season the company that I work for thought it would be nice to put up a whole bunch of decorations. Nothing out of the ordinary really. Just some festive, christmasy doohickeys like mini-christmas trees and over-sized tree ornaments hanging from the ceiling.

Unfortunately for me, this is the one that was hung just above and in front of my desk:

You don’t really get a sense of scale with this picture, but it was like a foot and a half across and staring down at me for like a month! Sure it’s smiling, but after awhile even a smile begins to look sinister. And are those tears running down the sides of it’s face? What the hell is wrong with that thing?

(In truth I loved it because it bothered everyone else so much)
