I am twitchy and crazy and the insanity is surely spreading

Dear diary,

Today we (that is, my labmates and I) discovered that our lab may have an imaginary member. You know? Like an imaginary friend? Except in lab. Listed on our approved personnel form for radio-isotopes. We have checked and this "Joseph" person is someone that no one knows and has never, at any point during the existence of our lab, worked in our lab anyway. To top it all off his name is high lighted in the form that was sent to us by the radioactivity portion of the health & safety organization on campus. We pondered this. Perhaps there is an imaginary lab member lurking around which would serve as a better explanation for the missing pens, odd incubator noises, and migrating hole punchers than simply a lab poltergeist. Perhaps he's the Canada of Hetalia, doomed to invisibility while the rest of us wondered at our vague senses of unease.

We do not know the answer yet, though we have emailed to inquire after this mysterious Mr. Joseph. Friday afternoon paperwork can be a source of intrigue and mystery (not of the confused by bureaucratic language sort) apparently. Who knew?

Sincerely,

S
