Hi SFO, she doesn't "work" at my agency. She's an outside worker who comes in from a group home to monitor one specific client. I see her a couple of days per week. But, yes that is one of my concerns about any outside activity with her. The other is that she is here on a work permit and that can create complications. Voldemort was here on a work permit and when it expired we had to marry or she'd have to leave the country...and we'd dated about six months! So when my new friend told me about her "work permit" well, alarm bells started ringing! She also has a medical condition that may require surgery, although she's trying to avoid doing that. So, that's enough sh!t to make me want to be cautious. So, we'll see how things go and I'll try not to be too "out there" with her because it's not fair to come on like a freight train and then do nothing. She is a cutie though and I certainly got the impression that she is enjoying the attention.
Maybe tomorrow you should bring an interesting book to look at. See if she sits with you. Good to see you taking some chances.

Kat, I bring her the newspaper on Fridays At the picnic I got her food for her. She didn't want to go up until everyone else was served so I went up got her a plate of food and brought it back for her. During the flood I offered to carry her up the hill (OK, I was kidding and she knew it)but I did insist on covering her with an unbrella through the whole storm. I am the gentleman of all time...it's quite scary to watch . Voldemort once told me that before we were married I always treated her like a Queen and, well you know the rest!
Btw Kat, she will never sit with me at work...because her job entails taking lunch and breaks with her client so that she doesn't run away! There is virtually no opportunity to spend time with her except the way we are doing it. The picnic was a godsend, it was a one time event that allowed us to spend a whole chunk of time together (and apparently everybody else knew it too!). So now if the boss gets on my case that would be a real piss off. I have to do hit and runs as it is and my friend knows that I'm going out of my way when I come to visit with her.
Did you watch Dr Phil yesterday? You can catch full episodes online. Anyway - it was about mail order brides. Sort of. Men seeking women outside of the U.S. One guy brought over a girl from Russia and married her. Then found out she had a serious medical condition and needed surgery. He paid for it. As soon as she recovered - she wanted a divorce. Several of the guys married women who just wanted to live in the U.S. Of course - it is not fair to assume that every woman is the same no matter what country they are from. But what you wrote just struck me - that's all. So far - it is a friendship that you enjoy. Nothing wrong with that.
Her medical condition is a bulging disc and she's trying to find other ways to deal with it besides surgery e.g. acupuncture. She's covered by OHIP and her employer will pay her for time off but would rather her wait until her EI benefits will cover that too. And just to be clear, she's never been the one to initiate with me (Asian women will NEVER initiate anyway), it's been all me baby!!!
Oh oh! I stopped to visit my with friend this morning, she has a new book today...The Koran. Apparently, she's a Muslim. Wow, this just gets better and better!
Um, have you told her yet that you are married and have no intention of getting divorced? That you spend all holidays with W, including your own birthday?
Oh yes, she's from the most Catholic country on the face of the friggin' earth and she's a Muslim! She turned red when she told me. I didn't know what the f@ck to say!
Well, we just had a really nice talk on break about her faith, how and why she became a Muslim and a whole bunch of other neat stuff! In fact, we were ten minutes late from coming back from break (I abandoned the boys in the parking lot and went over to be with her). She also told me she doesn't know much of the city even though she's been here three years because "I'm alone and I don't go out much"...Um, and do you think Whatis jumped all over that? Wrong! Wow, that was a "come and get me" remark if I've ever heard one. Breathe Whatis, breathe!
