Oh Teppy, being doomed by someone thoughtful and considerate is a good sort of doom, for being...you know...doomed. Also, I hope you just have random ick, and not salmonella. I may be in the wrong thread for that, but whatever.
I think I feel guilty because I didn't even hear her. It's not like I woke too, and Scott said, "I've got it," and so I rolled back over. No. It was like I am childless. I knew nothing, 'til I went to check on her this morning and noticed her bedspread was gone and her sheets were a different color than when I tucked her in, last night.
Amy, don't worry about the guys shovelling. I bet none of them think they ought to have been the ones to give birth.

Wait. Chi, you've been GOING TO WORK? Does your doctor know that?
Cindy, Scott's an equal partner parent. DO NOT feel guilty. If Julia really, really needed YOU, she would have come and gotten you.
ChiKat, I thought you had pneumonia?! You should have been home for days!
{{{Cindy}}} You have been sick with no time to actually let yourself be sick. Don't be too hard on yourself.
{{{ChiKat}}} Stay home and take care of yourself.

Well, we were together. He heard her. I didn't. But okay, shutting up, now.
No, no need to shut up! Just ... I am way more selfish than you. If Stephen heard the kids in the night, and got up and took care of them without me (which he has done), my reaction would be, "Oh, thank god."
Like I said, selfish = me. Especially when it comes to sleep and/or not having to clean up bodily fluids.
Cindy, what they're saying.
ChiKat! Feel better!
Wait. Chi, you've been GOING TO WORK?
Ummm....yeah....
Does your doctor know that?
Ummmm....no....
It's hard. I'm student teaching right now and trying to make a good impression and all that.
Thanks, Vortex. What are you still doing up? Is the uni closed again tomorrow?
nope, I'm just a night owl who doesn't know how to go to bed :)

Oh, honey. I'm so glad you stayed home, today. Stay home tomorrow, too. People make such a better impression when they don't have freaking pneumonia.
