Trust me, I totally know what you’re talking about. I have been known to chop block my boys if they try to touch a public door ; )

Debra – Thanks! I agree, people can be so silly sometimes!

Claire – Great idea. I just read an article about how good D is for you. I’ll have to get some.

Cassie – With my luck – I will! ; )

Hahah I think everyone has to be “that person” especially during this season when the swine flu is spreading like wildfire. Better safe than sorry!

Oh it would be on if someone sprayed me with Lysol. This country is over germ-i-fied. There is nothing wrong with being a little sick, your body develops an amuunity to it. But to totally avoid germs is just ridiculous and will not only cost more in the long wrong, but shorten your life span.

If it makes you feel any better, my neighbor who is a doctor said she thinks the worst is over. I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you!

I think I’m starting to get sick here myself. Ugh. Hey at least you can’t catch viruses through a computer screen!

Your co-workers would be emptying LOTS of cans of Lysol on me – I would be sneezing b/c of the Lysol (allergies), not b/c of the flu, and their spraying would just perpetuate the sneezing. might be quite comical – for awhile… I thought I was starting to get sick today, but think (HOPE) it’s just allergies. I’m with you – can’t afford to get sick next week.

Hope you stay well & have a good holiday!

Get thee some Vitamin D Dry. It helps boost immune function (as well as echinacea), and can prevent the flu.

I also won’t touch door handles and stair rails. We already had the flu in our house, but only my daughter suffered, so I’m thinking the rest of us must have good immune systems.

I LOVE your sense of humor!

You would NOT believe how many people come into our office (we have a pack and ship office here also..) and say… I’ve just come from the doctor and I’ve got the FLU… ugh… HELLO THANKS for coming in and SHARING it with us.. I guess it is a good thing they let us know because as soon as they leave the office the Lysol comes out until we all gag. We DO wait until they leave..

Do you take vitamins? I know it’d be an extra expense, but I’ve found that when I regularly take a multivitamin I’m usually the last person to get sick, and I don’t get as sick as everyone else.

Good luck with avoiding the cold and flu!

“I sneezed this morning and my co-worker nonchalantly hummed Billy Joel’s ‘We Didn’t Start the Fire’ while spraying me with an anti-bacterial aerosol like she was disinfecting her toilet.”

This totally made my morning, hehehe. I’m “that guy” too. My philosophy is, if it offends you that I won’t shake your hand, go shake someone else’s hand…they probably had it up their nose or in their butt crack anyway…
