Just another day at work
As many of you know, I work at an assisted living facility. Specifically, I work in the Alzheimer's unit. As it turns out, people do some crazy things as they wait to die. I broke out the Play-Doh for them and the moment I turned my back one of the old guys takes a huge bite out of his lump of blue Play-Doh. We tried to coax it out of his mouth, we tried to dig it out without sacrificing our fingers to his dentures, but he kept on chewing with a big blue smile on his face. And then he swallowed. Good thing its non-toxic. But some CNA is getting a blue surprise tomorrow. And a green one as well, because after Fred (names have been changed) was done with his fake clay, I guess Peggy thought it was a good idea and took a bite out of hers, too. At that point all Play-Doh privileges were summarily revoked.

Haha. That is SO funny. I bet you see a lot of crazy things in a place like that.
