Everything is getting a touch creepy. Mostly because there is some random dude starring at me through my office window, but hey, that's normal right?

Right, 'cause you got some guacamole on your chin. Not there, there.
 
I work in a lab where I decapitate specimens and dissect the heads, remove the brains, stain them with bodily fluids, and examine the concentrations of their constituents to determine the severity of their neurological pathology. I regularly handle beta-mercapthanol, chloroform, and a mixture of paraformaldehyde, gluteraldehyde, and sodium calcium carbonate buffer. We lack windows or ventilation with the exception of our fume hood. If I'm lucky, I leave with only a few new stains of blood and chemicals on my lab coat, and a lesser number of burns (chemical, electrical, and heat) and razor cuts. Also, I constantly smell of latex. I love lab work.
