Name my skeleton & win!

by freeandflawed on September 12, 2008

“You have a friend waiting for you” was what I heard when I walked inside the house this evening. A friend? You mean the man friend is here? Well that’s a pleasant surprise. Definitely unexpected. Before I could peel my backpack off my grandma replied that my friend was not breathing. I was a tad confused because I would think that the man friend would be quite fond of breathing. Then I saw a box. Surely he could not be inside.

The word “skeleton” typed on the side gave it away. I was surprised because it was shipped out yesterday. That was super fast! I pulled out the skull first, unwrapped it and admired it. Then I pulled out the femur, the hand, the hip, etc. No more than ten minutes went by and I had my skeleton man put together on the living room floor. It’s like Christmas morning!

I am a bit disappointed with the quality of his skull. Part of the sphenoid bone is crooked and the screws holding the top of his skull on fall out easily. Oh and I already yanked out three teeth. What? They were loose.

Mr. Bones here needs a name. Currently I’m calling him Buckwheat Bones, but I think my readers can come up with something a bit more appropriate and a hell of a lot more awesome. What’s in it for you? Well I’m glad you asked. I’m not sure yet. I still have a TON of stuff left over from BlogHer, including more laptop skins, two T-shirts, a laptop lock, some software, and other random goodies. I’m sure I’ll be able to put together a lovely gift box for the winner.

So give Mr. Bones a name and win yourself some free stuff!!

I wasn’t going to participate, but here I am. Knowing how much you loved the movie “300″, I thought you might want to name him….Leonitis

I’m having a similar issue… my full bodied skeleton/zombie ventrilloquist figure has no name. He can verbally joust with the best of them, but as yet, he is a nameless enigma…
