Why I Should Staple My Lips Together Before I Go To Work

Friday, one of the ladies here at the office asked me why I hadn't brought anything to decorate my area. I hadn't really thought about it before and told her so.

Today, I brought in a phone that a friend sent me of her and my brother and pinned it up.

After my break in the morning, the lady who asked me about decorating asked me who the photo was of.

"My friend and my brother," I said.

"Really," she said, "who's the oriental girl?"

"That's my brother."

She hasn't talked to me again so far today.

And I've taken the photo down after I caught one of the other ladies staring at it when I came back from lunch.

Oh hell! Put the picture back up and I'll find some other "interesting" family photos for you to add.

I'm not putting it up. I'm not comfortable with people coming into my area and touching my stuff. (I know, dirty.)
