Touched by a Co-Worker

There's a whole lot of touching going on at my office, and I'm not sure what to make of it. You know those touchy-feely sort of people? I've got two of them in my cramped office. One is this guy who always has to touch you when he walks by, like touch your shoulder or whatever. Fine. I really don't care. But this other chick, she gets carried away. She doesn't just touch shoulders and arms, she rubs, and sometimes strokes my hair. What the hell? She's Jamaican, and I don't know if this is a cultural thing or if it's just her. She's incredibly sweet and I like her, but...it's kinda weird. Not only is that weird, but she also sings songs in the office, and the corniest songs ever. The other day it was "We Are The World". Wacky.
