There was a fight in the office today! In the computer lab!

One guy's elbow kept touching another guy's arm while he was using the mouse. Guy being touched got angry and was all "Don't touch my skin, brother! Don't fuckin' touch my skin!" Then the guy using the mouse TOUCHED THE GUY'S SKIN and all hell broke loose!

We have an old lady who works at the front desk and greets clients. She is from the Phillipines and has a very cute accent. Also she's like, 4'11". Anyway, she got really upset and put her hands on her face a-la Mccaulay Culkin was like "Noo! Jamal!* Ricardo!* stop it! Ricardo, stop touching Jamal. Jamal leave him alone! OH NO!" Then she ran away. It was adorable and funny, but I didn't want to laugh because she was clearly upset. Also two huge homeless guys were fighting in the computer lab.

Anyway, it was fine. They agreed to "stay out of each other's spaces" and it calmed down pretty quickly.

One of my clients told me today that I looked like Leonardo DiCaprio's sister.

I like my office. I like my co-workers, and the vast majority of my clients so far have been very respectful and easy to work with. I've become particularly interested in helping the vets that we get in. We get a lot of homeless veterans and it just makes me so sad and disgusted so I do whatever I can to get them into Comprehensive Work Therapy, which is offered through the VA. It's basically getting paid 8 bucks an hour for 20 hours a week to be trained in a job. These guys probably deserve better, but I want to do what I can.

We have actors who come in to volunteer sometimes. This guy comes in every week. I just looked him up on IMDB for the first time and OMG HE WAS IN NATIONAL TREASURE BOOK OF SECRETS. Also he looks a lot like Brad Pitt, and his name is Brad.

Also, and I don't want to beat a dead horse here, but I have never, in my life, been complemented on the way I look like I have in LA. It is CRAZY. If you want a self-confidence boost, come to LA. It's a trip!
