ANYBODY WANT A CAT? I'VE GOT SIX, APPARENTLY.

Assorted shapes and sizes..

*~*~*

Around five this morning, as I'm running up and down the hallowed halls of B Wing - I zoomed past the treatment cart to grab a sip from my hallowed Trek Experience Travel Cup (from the lovely and vivacious piratesorka) AKA The Grail - on my way to answering another light, and it was...slightly off.

Seriously.

It was way-y-y over on the left side of the cart-top, and the RNP (Restorative Nursing Program) binder was now on the right. Huh. I didn't think much of it, but grumbled to myself that I must be REALLY tired, forgetting things, etc - as it seemed to be happening to me a LOT, lately.

Another pass, about twenty minutes, later - and it was gone. And sitting on the handrail that goes down the length of the wall, for residents to grasp as they go to and fro..and down the hall apiece, there was one of my constant 'companions', in a wheelchair; this particular one was from another wing, just a sweetie, who really likes me (and I, her) and wants to hang out with me...which is nice, but...

So I asked my friend and charge nurse, Patty Anne, if she'd seen Ruthie getting ahold of my cup and possibly drinking from it...and her face got so funny...So I asked her what was up, and she burst out, laughing, saying, "I was just messing with your head!" - my eyes widened - "I've been moving your cup around for the past two days, now!"

"..........."

Made my day, actually. We cracked UP. OMG. She got me good, and yes, I apologized to her for, 'seriously underestimating her'....Heh. Bazinga.

Creative coworkers can make a job livable. I know my cubbymate Heather is not above planking (or Tebowing) when she sees things getting to serious :)

And where are you this morning, missy?

This morning? I thought you were off work - and therefore, sleeping in - so I didn't bother to come online..Season 4 was calling me.

No, I don't want no cats...I was just going to ask how to make them go away, 'cause there's like 4 of them in my complex/nut house, but the nutters like feeding them, so they stick around. At least I'm on the second floor and don't have to deal with them pawing at my door.

But thanks for the laugh! If someone kept moving my cup around on me for two days, I'd swear I was losing my mind or there was a ghost around. She's got a good sense of humor and that cracked me up! It still would have been funny even if Ruthie had only gotten hold of it: I can just picture this little old lady in a wheel chair sneaking away with your cup. The old and the crazy can be funny sometimes...

Well, apparently, I've no idea how to make them go away, as we seem to be a magnet for them..Oh, and re: sneaking away with my cup? It happens. BELIEVE me..Happy Thanksgiving, grrl. ♥

if i lived near ya and prince chase wasnt a jealous cat i would take one. Also thanks for the laugh coworkers know how to play good jokes. Anyways have a good thanksgiving and eat plenty turkey gobble gobble.

Awww - no biggie, lol. You KNOW I'm going to end up keeping them all...Thanksgiving was a no-go, this year, due to work, etc - but I sincerely hope you had a nice one :)

OH excellent one, she really messed with you good!

[indiwise.livejournal.com]

She's the nurse that was writing the name, 'Klinger' on a med cup for a resident and - while talking to me, of course - accidentally wrote, 'Klingon' - LOL - Yes, I still have it. *facepalm*

If it wasn't for little jokes like that around the shop, I think my coworkers and I would go crazy. Don't leave a can of soda sitting around, opened or unopened, cause more often than not, something is gonna happen to it. One of the guys I work with, has to do the crossword everyday and a lot of times we hide that section of the paper, he won't give up untill he finds it.

I hope you did end up having a good Thanksgiving, and sorry, I already have too many cats.

[indiwise.livejournal.com]

Man, you aint kidding, re: jokes. Our situation is so damned stressful - it's like freakin' Lord of the Flies, lately.

TAKING SOMEONE'S CROSSWORD PUZZLE IS CRUEL. Just cruel. LOL.

Thanksgiving was a bust; I worked - hope you all had a good one.
