Space Bubble Invading

Do you have a space bubble? I do!! If you don't know what one is, let me explain. When my nephew Ethan talks to me, he likes to be nose to nose. THAT is invading my space bubble. But the thing about that is I don't really care since he is only 4 and he doesn't really understand all about the space bubble just yet. However, I hate it when ADULTS invade my space bubble. And today it happened. I had a client come into my office and he needed to make some changes to his policy. Fine, not a big deal, that's my job - and I actually like dealing with the clients and making small talk. But this feller is ALL about invading my space bubble. He doesn't come up and sit down in front of my desk like a normal human ... nope, he comes and stands right BESIDE me, puts his hand on the back of my chair (yah I know, WAAAAAY too far into my space bubble, practically INSIDE my space bubble). I want to tell him to back up and go sit down but I am too nice for that. Then he goes on to tell me that his daughter stayed home from school because she is puking everywhere and he goes on to say he has also had the shits all day (his words, not mine) and feels like he could vomit anytime!! All this fun information doesn't help my anxiety and makes me just want to RUN!! Of course I don't though because I am a professional -- so I help the guy out with his insurance needs, send him on his merry way, cover myself in antibacterial hand gel and then burn the skin off my body!! If you are going to be a space bubble invader, don't brag about your butt sickness and vomit possibilities - I am not interested!
