I know, I haven't written in a while, again. I went on vacation again. A roadtrip to Washinton State. Ate lots of good food, pesto mac, Kansas style BBQ. Then I got sick. Can I get a woohoo for getting sick on vacation.
Now I am back at work and still sick. Being on the bookmobile sick isn't nearly as fun as when you aren't sick. And the weather has been super hot. We have been driving with our older vehicle while the other was getting worked on. The older one has inferior air conditioning, if you can even call it that. Being on the bookmobile hasn't been pleasant, but I am getting better. Yesterday we were giving away summer reading books and one of our patrons, a 13 year old girl who reads a ton and loves Inu Yasha, pointed out to me the funny part in one of the volumes. One of the characters was groping another's rear. I love that she pointed out the dirty part.
Today, I hit a garbage can and knocked it over. It was fine. My boss hopped out and set it up again. We were within 30 feet of our stop and our waiting patron saw me do the deed. When she got on she said, "What the hec, knock it down," then went on to talk about inconsiderate people and how they should put away their garbage cans.
On the way out she hit her arm on the railing. She ripped off a quarter size chunk of skin and started bleeding. It's awful how fragile the elderly are. I sometimes forget that they are elderly because they are so spunky, then something happens and they get hurt. I gave her a wipe and tissue and bandaid. If I could/If she let me I probably would have banadaged up her whole arm. But that gets me thinking too, am I allowed to do this or is this something that I will get in trouble for, legally? Hmm . . . questions to ponder.
