Ha! I've seen this pic a few times...Eric ;)

OMG, it's already here!

I suppose it's half the point, but 99% of my office would be so confused...

And there are only maybe 20 people, so there's that to be considered as well.

I forgot. :(

I'm off work today and flying... I don't think TSA would accept that as an excuse.

I forgot also. Might go home during lunch just to get it.

All I have is a welding helmet. Does that count?

Unless you also ride a motorcycle to work you will be doing a good impersonation of an idiot. It's also "Wear your Pikachu Butt Plug Tail to Work Day" so... have at it.

Now that's just showing off, wearing your race gloves on Helmet Day

I'm really bummed. I forgot that today was Wear Your Helmet to Work Day and by mere coincidence today is the only day this week that I don't just happen to have a helmet with me. I had the race trailer with my gear in it at the office on Monday and rode my motorcycle every other day.

I almost didn't have a work day today. I remembered, but the people at this office think I'm enough of a weirdo already, sorry It'd be pretty generic-looking IT stuff anyway.
