Kinda Gross

My one complaint about my new job:

 I love being a school counselor.  I really do.  I love everything but one about the whole situation.  

You see I have this lovely desk. 

 And a basket of bribery candy on the corner of my desk.

 Well one day I came in to find my crackers that were in this drawer had a few nibbles taken out of them.  How a creature got into this drawer to eat my crackers is beyond me (the drawer is usually closed).  So I threw them away immediately.

 A few weeks later I come to work to find a basket of candies that look like this:

 And scratch marks like this:

So I threw all the candy away and sterilized the basket as best as I could.  Now I lock my basket away at night in a cabinet that has no secret entry ways and have not had a problem since. But let me tell you, it was pretty traumatic. I sure hope my little office friends have gone away for good.  I never knew they were quite the sneaky little beasts and climb desks. I have learned my lesson.
