I am a "nomal person" I just carry around headless nudes....



My daughter wanted a dress dummy at first, and then we moved on to perhaps a mannequin. 
 
But those were in my mind, and when Target was selling out they had discounted the mannequins but they were expensive ( $75 a piece for top and bottom) and even when it dropped lower, $37.50 each, they had no way to stand up. They were a very light fiberglass and would not have worked.
In my morning wandering in the Mall every day I began to notice that a Ricki’s store was closing and it was selling off the fixtures. Waiting until the last days, I took my self in and explained to the saleswoman that I was a “normal person” but it was a present for my daughter. We had a good laugh and after some discussion, I purchased a mannequin for $50 including a chrome stand. They had a few left, even a sitting one but I knew she wanted a standing one and quite frankly I didn’t really need one or even want one.

After paying for it I asked the fatal question, did I have to carry this nude model out of the mall? At least they had a back door making for a shorter and more secretive trip. I took he arms in a big bag along with the chrome base and carried the nude woman out with one hand in her crotch praying I could make it to my car. The only person I saw was the UPS man who tried to look away. I had to stop and explain to him that I was “normal” and it was a present for my daughter and we had a big laugh.

Tonight we drove to Toronto to deliver it and my wife and daughter were able to get it into the building and onto an elevator and into her apartment. Thank God it’s out of my house!
