Gee, that sure looks like a.....

I often lament to myself that I rarely have things happen throughout my day that I can post about. Mainly it's due to the fact that I'm not allowed to talk about the kids I work with due to strict confidentiality laws. And since a large part of my day is spent working, that leaves less time in which post worthy things can happen.

But something happened today that was to hilarious not to share. And leaving the kid's name out will not detract from the story what so ever. Therefore it won't break the confidentiality laws.

Oh and for those of you that don't know, I am a Youth Support Worker. I spend one to one time with foster kids doing various activities and helping the youth achieve goals.

So today I was out with one of the boys I work with. We had a bit of time to kill and it was a beautiful day so we decided to go for a walk. I can't say exactly what town we were in (rules) but lets just say it is part of the Tri-Cities. So we were walking along a suburban neighbourhood street, just talking about stuff, when I noticed something in the gutter just ahead of us. At first I thought it was one of those things that when viewed from an angle looked like something else but when you get a closer look it turns out to be trash. And my first thought was so absurd that I hoped it was trash. But as we got closer it didn't transform when viewed from a different angle. It became clear that it was in fact what I thought it looked like.

I stopped dead in my tracks and started laughing. The kid I was with hadn't noticed it and turned to see what I was laughing about. He is a 15 year old boy that is well aware of the world around him, so he knew what it was right away, and started laughing as well.

Sitting in the gutter on a quiet suburban street was a two foot long, black, double ended DILDO.
