What if you had fallen ill at the wheel? Your husband was right to question them. I would have gone in and punched them in the nose.<br /><br />Thirdly, no apologies are necessary re. commenting. I am so behind it just isn't funny; but like you I love all the bloggers I read. They're like my family.<br /><br />Look after yourself, hon.

I miss having a regular job, but when I think about some of the crap I dealt with from my co-workers, I regret quitting a little less. People can truly suck. I can't imagine seeing a co-worker in distress for any reason, and not doing whatever I could to help them. Even if I didn't like them, it's just human decency.Aunt Juiceboxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09312942310632639442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4522731770475871317.post-24266501602352788192009-08-12T04:27:25.982+05:302009-08-12T04:27:25.982+05:30No wi-fi in the hospital?

I was down to 6 total posts left to read on the "must read" list....and then missed a couple days. Now I'm trying to get caught back up again. :-) :-)<br /><br />Your post got me wondering, and thinking, about what my co-workers would do. I'd have to say, that most of them would drop everything to take me. <br /><br />If for not other reason, then the fear of my hubby coming to visit them if they didn't. :-)Nejhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00982042722943000994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4522731770475871317.post-38460086325415568342009-08-11T23:58:42.474+05:302009-08-11T23:58:42.474+05:30I've been living in my own head lately so I di...I've been living in my own head lately so I didn't know about this?!?!<br /><br />I'm so glad you're ok.Jenny Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12943823729806115657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4522731770475871317.post-40297704311315578352009-08-11T20:55:43.482+05:302009-08-11T20:55:43.482+05:30That is crazy!!!

Since you mentioned viral, I thought I'd let you know a friend of mine went through a similar experience this weekend, and was diagnosed with fluid around the heart, caused by a virus. The condition is called Pericarditis.<br /><br />Only thing is ... she got good drugs out of the deal ... you got an ancient maxi pad. Go figure. ;-p<br /><br />Your husband was ABSOLUTELY NOT out of line!<br /><br />Your co-worker? Rhymes with ITCH!<br /><br />Your supervisor? Give me his number! I think he needs to brush up on his 'people skills' and I'd be just the chick to give him that brushin'! <br /><br />I'd write a letter to HIS supervisor, explaining HIS reaction to all of this! Then again, maybe that's just the ITCH in me coming out ;-)<br /><br />Still. Not cool reactions. At all.<br /><br />Sorry your co-workers suck. :-(Kim's Kornerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12693166504226008907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4522731770475871317.post-16258239012286284052009-08-11T18:21:43.912+05:302009-08-11T18:21:43.912+05:30Could your husband have been any more out of line?...Could your husband have been any more out of line???<br /><br />JUST KIDDING???
