For the last two weeks, select co-workers and I have brought toys to work.
Maybe we've done it because we're bored. Maybe we've done it because we're geeks. Maybe we've done it because our place of employemnt is relentlessly bland--I've been in banks that were more visually stimulating. Or maybe we just bloody well felt like bringing toys to work.
Reactions amongst our other co-workers have been mixed. Some think the action figures are cool. Others think they reveal us to be not quite right in our heads. Still others ignore the situation entirely (then again, they ignore us as co-workers and human beings as well, so maybe it's best that they not take notice).
Whatever. They make us smile. And anything that makes us smile makes through the last workday of the week that much easier.

Cool idea! How many did you bring? How did you choose among so many that you have?
Each of us brings one figure apiece. I'm trying to choose figures my coworkers are unlikely to have (to avoid duplication) and will find cool/amusing.
I just happen to have an ET, a red Godzilla, and a Tribble on my desk. No reason. They just stay there. Oh and a Spidey mint tin.
