This week bites! Aside from planning a memorial service for the baby on my caseload that died on Monday morning (which sucks to do exactly six years after planning my own child's memorial) I am totally getting leaned on by the attorney general to get nine million things done NOW! Then, when I ask her questions she tells me to just do things like I would do then for any other client.... WTF??? With any other client I wouldn't have the AG telling me when to wipe my arse every step of the way and I would be able to make my own case plan without having to ask permission to BREATH! BLAH!!! To be fair, though, she did tell my boss that she was up three times Friday night worrying about all that she is asking of me... so at least she recognizes that my THREE child welfare nightmares are a bit much!
I thought about fracturing off the piece about work into a different blog, but decided against it. It seems more authentic to show the same dichotomy that IS my life. Monday afternoon Eph played in the pool and I read police reports...
"Mommy look at the cool boat I made."
"Yes that's amazing."... hmmm I didn't realize people only get paid $10-$15 for blow jobs, that hardly seems worth it.
"Mommy can I go get an apple?"
"Sure, go ahead!"... What?? only $25 for sex and $35 for anal?? UNREAL!
My point is, since MY head is so hopelessly split, I should reflect that split here at times, no?? Ok, but enough of the dark stuff for today!!!
