Headless Gabriel

Rachel's Story about Headless Gabriel:

I find that when I make dolls out of socks they come out a whole lot dumber than the other dolls I make. Perhaps it's because I fill their heads with less stuffing fluff so the socks don't stretch out too much. One particular doll of mine truly shines as far as stupidity. After I sewed his eyes on, I placed Gabriel alongside the other sock dolls. He loooked around him and then at himself, and cried out in horror! He shrieked and flailed his stubby arms madly. I asked him what was wrong and he wailed, "They all have heads! They all have heads but ME! I can't see it! And...and...when I reach up to touch it I don't feel anything! I HAVE NO HEAD!!!!!" I tried to reason with him but he was hysterical. So, I did the only thing I could think of...I sewed another head on next to his, one that he could see, just to make him feel better......or at least to stop the screaming.
