So we have to have ID badges for work now. I had my picture taken a while ago, at a moment when I was rather unprepared.
The badge showed up today. I look totally stoned* in the picture.
It's better than one I had for a job many years ago. At the time I had dyed my hair blonde and happened to be wearing a light coloured shirt. This is where I should mention too that my skin tends to be paper-white.
The pic was taken in front of a white wall with a very flash-y camera. I looked like a glowing yellow light instead of a person. There was sort of a halo with eyes in the middle!
*I wasn't.
I am a mental health worker. What this means, I am still not sure. All I know is that I can REALLY sympathize with my clients sometimes. Oh yeah, and I'm Canadian, eh?

The Mind Wanders Already on Monday
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.

Free Giveaway
A client of mine was recently given a couch by a neighbour. It was in good shape, and she badly needed some new furniture. She had arranged said couch in her living room, and been enjoying it for a couple of hours, when she noticed the sound of some muffled meows.
This client does have a cat, but she could see him pleasantly napping on the other side of the room. After a few moments confusion, she realized what was going on – the neighbours cat was stuck IN the couch. She pulled off all the cushions and fished the poor thing out from within the structure of the sofa. Apparently, the feline was none the worse for wear, and was safely returned to his owners. The neighbours swore up and down that they had no idea he was in there.

Oh, you witty social workers
I’ll preface this by saying that I don’t usually wear shorts, but I did today.
Me, gabbing with my manager today: Wow, I never realized I had so many bruises all over my legs
Sarcastic supervisor: Nectarine, is this your way of telling me you have something you need to talk about?
*eyeroll*
