lkjwernblj!

Thats what I have to say about that.  I don't ever really get sick.  The last time I took a "sick day" was when I woke up with a blindingly painful migraine and even then, came in halfway through the day once it went away.  I was out at the end of last week for a camping trip but woke up today with a sore throat and stuffed up nose.  I came to work because I had just been out.  I'm armed with a gallon of hand sanitizer, I wash my hands compulsively, I am keeping a low profile, leaving the area to blow my nose when necessary and avoiding touching anything communal.

I have a co-worker who is ALWAYS sick.  Always.  And she snorts down snot and it makes me want to vomit.  I call her Typhoid Mary at home (immature I know but whatever).  today, she has the gall to be all "ewwww, you need to keep your sickness over there. Germs are so disgusting - I don't want it" 

Ugh, I'm short on sleep, I don't feel superb (but not bad enough to not stay at work) and Aunt flo just departed from her monthly visit so my emotions are a little wonky but I just about went through the roof. 

I never EVER say anything to Typhoid Mary about her disgusting habits or that they have me running around bathing in sanitizer just because she's got something new every  other week.  I just smile when she wants to borrow some supply of mine and wipe it down when she's done since it never occurs to her to do that and plug in my ipod and jack up the volume to drown out the snot swallowing.  I guess I must be feeling worse than I thought because this just tripped my "you annoy me" trigger in a big way.

Today kinda sucks.  :(

  • "Listen here, Typhoid Mary, I blow my nose because I don't like to snack on snot like you.  I'm not doing it out in the open, and even if I did, at least I'm keeping my area clean.  You, on the other hand, are sick every other week, and you're pretty disgusting about it.  So SHUT IT!"
