Sick People

So, I have been out of the loop for about 6 weeks. I had vacation, and well, let's face it, I just dropped lots of trips and did not work for awhile. Anyways, I am back. My first leg had 2 green sick people. Luckily, only one vomited. I felt slightly rude donning the rubber gloves to deal with her and her fluids, but hey, there is an epidemic coming. She did not seem to notice my gloves. However, Picture this: Sick woman (girlish woman not sure of the age) sitting on the lav floor (GROSS) Me standing at the door. For some reason I bent down to be on her level and see how she was doing. I was asking her a series of questions just to see what her ailment could be.... I ask her if she is pregnant. HAHAHAHA She begins laughing. She informs me that she had her period 4 days ago, and really she just doesn't have sex that often. Fine. Like I care. Then, she takes her hand and slaps me on the arm. Playful, gentle slap, but she was in the midst of puking her guts out and slapped me! I knew I should have donned the plastic gown as well....
