Y etiquette

I am a member of the YMCA but haven't really been going a ton since Chase was born but since it continues to rain, I needed an out today. So I packed up the boys and their bag of goodies and dropped them off at the child watch room. I am holding Chase and trying to figure out where to put him down - I am a huge germ-a-phobe so I ask if the bouncers get wiped down, "Oh sure...we use a disinfectant spray and wipe them after each kid." and I am looking at all three trying to figure out which one has less crumbs all over it - wiped down?

Once I have them dropped off and settled, I get myself onto the elliptical and am listening to my music, and this woman gets on the machine next me. And her cell phone rings...she carries on a casual conversation for about 5 minutes and then hangs up. Then a minute later, she calls another person and chats with that person for about 10 minutes...I hear all about someone named Drew and how much he works and blah, blah, blah... I guess I am a person who compartmentalizes...If you want to sweat, then come to the gym and workout, if you want to chat on your cell, do it without the entire cardio section of the gym involuntarily easedropping.
