Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My favorite was when people would start freaking out at work, and she'd start with, "This is not an emergency. An emergency is a resident who got on some random bus and doesn't know how to get home. An emergency is a resident up on the roof. THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A FUNDRAISING EMERGENCY."

She doesn't have any other symptoms, though. And she's running around, playing. Joe's taking her to the doctor at 5:15.

I'm thinking you've got the better part of the deal, Aimee. Just wait until she gets older -- when I was little, I always climbed right in bed next to my mom after I puked. I didn't tend to wake her up.
