Turds from Heaven

Well, I thought it was fitting to share this story here, since I believe it was this post of facebook that caused people to tell me to start blogging again. Who knew a turd could start it all. Let's just say I learned first hand how accurate the horror portrayed during the Baby Ruth scene in the movie Caddyshack can be. I was on my way to lunch (which was miraculously right where I left it - no lunch thief that day my friends) and I stepped into the restroom. I walked into the stall to find a TURD on the floor. I think (HOPE) that this is the most disgusting thing I have ever encountered.

I proceeded to get a pair of gloves and place said turd where it belongs. Note: some co-workers couldn't believe I cleaned it up. I felt walking away from it could only lead to further damage (you know aside from my own mental trauma)- like someone walking in and NOT seeing it and stepping in it. Another co-worker pointed out, "well what if you walked out and someone else walked in and though YOU were the culprit" - another good point.

So later that night I was relaying my story to Josh. You see, the night before we had to put down our beloved cat, Guinness. Guinness was having problems using the litter box (among other things) and we were constantly cleaning up turds from outside the litter box. When I was leaving work still pondering how such a thing could occur I laughed to myself. I was thinking about how people talk about "pennies from heaven". I told Josh that perhaps Guinness was sending us turds from heaven. It may be my weird sense of humor, but after an emotional 24 hours it made me laugh.
