I believe this head is watching me anytime I go to the third floor. Co-workers are still days away.

I believe that's a cow-orker... of sorts.

Or a gnu...
...I had taken furnished lodgings down at Rustington-on-Sea
Whence I travelled on to Aston-under-Lyne
On the second night I stayed there I was wakened from a dream
Which I'll tell you all about some other time
Among the hunting trophies on the wall above my bed
Stuffed and mounted was a face I thought I knew
A bison? An okapi? Could it be a hartebeest?
Then I seem to hear a voice—"I'm a gnu!

I'm a gnu—a-g-nother gnu
I wish I could g-nash my teeth at you
I'm a gnu—how do you do?
You really oughtta g-know w-who's w-who
I'm a gnu—spelt G - N - U
Call me bison or okapi and I'll sue
Nor am I in the least like that dreadful hartebeest
Oh, g-no, g-no, g-no, I'm a gnu!
G-no, g-no, g-no, I'm a gnu!
G-no, g-no, g-no, I'm a gnu!"

—Flanders & Swann, The Gnu Song

Are you stuck in a JG Ballard short story? Or just in the building?

I apologize to the deer every time I walk past it.

They're going to discover you naked, drunk and smeared with your own feces, aren't they?

Man, this is turning into a scene from Apocalypse Now or something.

Dude, how long are you in there alone for? It seems like it has been days already.
