Skeleton Crew

I have a number of skeletons in my closet and every year I pull them out to decorate for Halloween.

This year, I decided to extend the decorations outside. Unable to find another human skeleton, I was about to give up when fate shined upon me. While walking through the drugstore to pick up prescriptions, I found a skeleton. Without missing a beat, I grabbed it from the display and continued to the pharmacy. Once my turn arrived to check out, the technician turned her head away from me and raised her scanner in the general direction of my prize.

After several failed attempts, she said “I can’t ring that up – it’s staring at me!” (It was!)

I quickly placed my hand over its eyes so she could complete her task. Everyone in the vicinity thoroughly enjoyed the show.

Thrilled with my decor, I thought about going back and showing her my displays but figured she wouldn’t find them at all friendly.

Now that Halloween has passed, the skeletons are back in the closet. I have everything I need for next year, so no need to worry about scaring my pharmacy technician again.

May the farce be with you!
