Tiger in the Bathroom

So my building at work is hosting this big ol' Health Fair today... the lounge area and just about every conference room is crawling with folks checking out and taking part of all kinds of different activities. I'm steering clear for the most part... except to get some Mahi-Mahi and noodles they're makin over there (VERY good stuff... though it's only a sample and I'm not sure how well it'll go with the mac and cheese I brought for lunch... oh well.)

Oh, and I felt kinda bad for the nurse stationed out front of one of the out-of-the-way conference rooms... theoretically running the Hearing Tests, but standing there twiddling her thumbs cuz I'm fairly sure nobody knows she's there. And really, I only saw her cuz I passed by that hall on my way back to my department. So, even though I already know I'm deaf, I stopped by to get tested and give the poor chick somethin to do. lol It was a pretty short test... and turns out I'm not as deaf as I thought I was since I heard all the tones. But then, I've always known I can hear most sounds just fine... it's just DISTINGUISHING them that's a problem.

Amway, they're also offering flu shots... for $25. NOT. But it DID remind me to walk over to the VA Hospital (nice benny of being a veteran, working across the street from the hospital, and also for having a gorgeous day out) and get one for free.

But back to the tiger in the bathroom... I guess the University mascot, Truman the Tiger, is also part of the activities today. Imagine sitting on the pot and seeing a big ol pair of orange feet and a tail go by from under the door... lol Imagine Truman bein a girl! :) In all seriousness, though... gotta feel for those poor peeps inside those bulky mascot costumes when they gotta take a pee.
