"Mildly irritating" may be an understatement, but this doesn't rise to the level of upsetting.
This morning I had a 9:00 meeting at work. Mrs. Dallas was scheduled for a 10:00AM appointment to have her allergies (or lack of) evaluated. So I dropped Young Master Dallas at school and continued on to work, where I went immediately to the meeting. (Executive summary: We can do reporting based on information that's in the database. Yes, somebody can go through and eyeball things, but it's really better to have things tracked in the database.) At 9:40 the meeting is all but over, except for the confirmation of items to be done. I get a txt msg from Mrs. Dallas saying that she fell while leaving the house to take Miss Dallas to the doctor and she's not sure if she'll be able to drive. I take 2 more minutes to wrap up the meeting. Call both their cell phones; no answer at either. Call home phone. Miss Dallas answers. "Mom is still sitting in the car. She said it hurts pretty bad." So she took the phone out, and I told her I was coming home. Meanwhile the time for the allergist is approaching. We got a friend to drive Miss Dallas in for her appointment. Meanwhile I took Mrs. Dallas to the doctor & then to the hospital for an xray. While waiting for her, I gave the allergist Miss Dallas' medical history over my cell phone. We're now all back home. (Xray results due within 2-3 hours.) |

I think everyone imagines SD with his handy red Swingline.
I know I do.

At any rate, it's just a sprain. I think I will be home tomorrow, though.. the schools here close for Rosh Hoshana, and I don't think it's the greatest idea to leave her home with both of them bouncing around. |

Steve it's times like this, and blizzards, which can be kind of cool. Once the pain simmers down, you'll all find yourselves in a remade relationship. ahh I'm pretty tired, you know what I mean. You can be out of your usual roles for a bit.

Could be worse, it could have been your fault, Kyle.
Oh wait, it is... we just don't know how/why yet.

My throat hurts and my head and eyes ache in a way that I know means I'm going to be getting a nasty cold. Damn it.
