3 weeks before my 31st birthday, I’ve come to the realization that I’ve entirely skipped the cat-lady stage and gone straight to the senile stage.
I don’t have cats. I have stuffed animals. At work.
Introducing Alphonse the accountant. 
It’s his first month-end.
Such a diligent hard-worker.
I’m obsessed.
Discovering ratchet 
So long as you don’t begin having conversations with Alphonse which involve him advocating killing coworkers or clients. Particularly if he presents and articulates an elaborate cost-benefit analysis and business case. 😉

Just be careful. Once you decide that Alphonse needs a friend it goes rapidly downhill, and pretty soon your desk is covered with toys.
I speak from experience here – I haven’t seen the top of my desk in years…

Alphonse needs no one but me.
He is already in high demand. 2 coworkers have borrowed him in the 1 week that he has been at the office.

He makes me so happy. As in, I am surviving my first day without eating chocolate or candy at the office, because of him.

It isn’t voluntary. My boxing coach made me take “before” pics (sports bra and shorts), to track my progress as I start a new training regimen.
Seeing those pics made my eyes bleed and then I cried.

OMG. I couldn’t even take the pics. I would be horrified by them. Seriously you’re amazing.

It was awful. I stalled for 3 days (“my phone is dead! I swear!”) until he threatened to barge into the girls locker room and take it himself. Nooooooo thank you.

Alphonse? One does not pull a name like that out of thin air…does one? Or is there meaning?

Thin air. I held him in my arms, and I just knew. Alphonse looked at me with his big eyes, and that was that. True office-place love.

Understandable. However, Alphonse is a faithful coworker, and he won’t leave me.
Apparently, there are many Alphonse relatives, if ever you head out to New Brunswick…
