PSA of the Day: wash yo hands fools


Dear Co-worker:
I was in the locker room changing and I noticed that you left the bathroom area without washing your hands. i just wanted to share some info with you from the Center of disease control (www.cdc.gov) because maybe you are just on sure on how to do it.

Wash Your Hands: The Right Way
When washing hands with soap and water:

Wet your hands with clean running water and apply soap. Use warm water if it is available.
Rub hands together to make a lather and scrub all surfaces.
Continue rubbing hands for 15-20 seconds. Need a timer? Imagine singing "Happy Birthday" twice through to a friend.
Rinse hands well under running water.
Dry your hands using a paper towel or air dryer. If possible, use your paper towel to turn off the faucet.
Always use soap and water if your hands are visibly dirty.
If soap and clean water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand rub to clean your hands. Alcohol-based hand rubs significantly reduce the number of germs on skin and are fast-acting.

When using an alcohol-based hand sanitizer:

Apply product to the palm of one hand.
Rub hands together.
Rub the product over all surfaces of hands and fingers until hands are dry.

Love,
Crystal


To the rest of you lovelies:
see this is why you need to open the bathroom door with a paper towel and do like me and keep a giant bottle of hand sanitizer on your desk!

The Death of the Cool



Once upon a time I made a proclamation. Full of naïveté, but thinking I knew everything, I insisted that after the age of 25 you ceased to be cool. It vanished on your 26th birthday never to return again.

In less than 2 months (53 days to be exact) I will turn 26. So for the next 7 weeks or so I will be using my "cool" to it's fullest, for on September 3rd 2009 the angel of death will swoop down and take my cool away..........

ugggg Did I really just say that? pppffffft maybe my cool is gone already...
