Alternate title: Monday Morning Musings
Or: I consider my every little thought so intricately facinating, that I just can't help but share. I know you wanna hear 'em.
1. I wish it was a wee bit colder outside so we'd have snow instead of rain.
2. I wish that little blinky light telling me I have messages to check would just go away.
3. It's only 3 weeks until Christmas holiday, woo-hoo!
4. My Monday 'to-do' list is depressing me.

Foot in Mouth Disease
A co-worker of mine is having a bad week.
She works in the front-reception area of our office. The other day a woman from a community partner came in to pick up a large box of information pamphlets. My co-worker kindly offered to help, as she told the woman she should not have to carry such a heavy load when she was pregnant!
Ah, turns out she wasn’t pregnant.
A day or two later, this same co-worker was at a community event hosting our information booth. She was handing out these little cards we have with a black square in the middle where you press your thumb to read your “mood” (kinda like the old mood rings). Red=tense, blue=relaxed, green=calm etc.
A man approached and she gave him a card. He looked at it and said, what is this, is it working? Oh no, she says, you’re black! Uh, yeah, I know I’m black he says. Because he was. Black. Ack, no, I meant you’re still black she stumbles. Offended and confused, he walked away saying I know that, you don’t have to tell me!
She went from white to about 5 shades of red.
It was good for a laugh back at the office at least. Which we all need every now and then to help go from red to blue (or green, whatever).
