I also just recently had another first, one that I never imagined that I would have in my lifetime.
I got screened for Ebola at the local hospital.
It was intense, let me tell you. I was not even allowed to walk into the ER without first answering a series of questions. I was questioned on my past travels. I was questioned about what flights I have taken and when. I was questioned if I ever had any association with known Ebola sufferers. I then got a special "No Ebola club" sticker. I can't even get my fucking picture taken for the "No Cavity Club" at the dentist...
All I have to say is, they are lucky I was walking into the ER for work. Cause otherwise I would have totally fucked with them and answered yes to all of the questions just to see what would have happened. I personally envision some kind of set up like you see in ET, with all the tents and the people in the white suits and the shriveled, sickly alien and a young, cute, and innocent Drew Barrymore.
I wonder if the CDC would get mad if I asked them if I could phone home...?
I would make a really lousy Ebola patient I think. I would be so bored, so I would be way tempted to do shit like lift the white suit up and touch their scrubs underneath just so I could have someone in isolation with me. We could pass time by making origami out of the masks we are forced to wear and by playing catch with balloons made from the gloves. It's all gonna get incinerated anyways, so we may as well use the supplies in the room, amiright?
(This is where, if I had more than 9 people who read my blog, I would get flamed for making fun of a serious disease such as Ebola. People are suffering, don't you know? It's a government conspiracy! My first response is...you have to laugh or you will cry. My second response?

If I am going to hell, which I surely am...it is not going to be for poking fun at a disease. I know at least that much.
