Apparently I’m the walking dictionary at work. There was this conversation a moment ago:

“Merinda, what’s that big word for condoms?”

*blink* “Prophylactics?”

And I learned ANOTHER coworker likes Torchwood and has a John Barrowman thing. I made her jealous with my photo. And then introduced her to my fanfic.

Slowly I will convert my department to superwood. Come to fandom, we have porn…and other things…

….I just explained to a coworker that yes, in fact Germany used to be split into two countries. East and West Germany. I am old enough to remember when the Berlin Wall came down

Er, so it was a slow Saturday at work. One of my coworkers has seen some of my Johnlock and when I made a comment about being sweet and innocent, she laughed. This lead to coworker 2 wanting to read it. So, I let her. Now two of my coworkers have seem my AO3 smut. I begged them not to share with the rest of the department and they promised Both were rather shocked that I could write anything like that. “A very active imagination” said one of them. 

Apparently  my attempts to pass for a normal human being at work have mostly succeeded. lol.

My coworker just asked me for a time machine.

So I handed them my papercraft TARDIS.
