I may be having an asthma attack right this moment. I'm sitting very still at my desk and breathing and wondering if I should say anything or just wait and see if it eases up or whatever.

This is terribly exciting. My allergies have been through the roof this week (It's 30 degrees! No, it's 70 degrees! No, it's 30 degrees!) so this is not entirely unexpected. Well, yeah - it was.

Wow. I should possibly go home. Damn. There was no real exposure trigger, I was just sitting here and thinking about Angel and then I realized that I was having a hard time breathing out. Okay. It isn't that bad. I was just scared. I'm good now.

I was going to type that 10-things I've done that you haven't meme up and then the breathing thing happened and really and truly - I've not done much with my life. I once drove James Brady around New Orleans in a lift van before the National TBI seminar or something (he was the guest of honor) and I kept calling him Mr. Brady and he would get mad and insist I call him "Bear" and I wanted to call him Bear, but I don't know him very well and I am very Southern in some respects so I just couldn't and I couldn't call him Mr. Brady so I just quit addressing him by name.

Also, the place where I worked (that was hosting Mr. Brady's visit) had sent me out to show him the sites but they also were short-staffed that day and sent the delusional 240 lb dude with me (cause he needed an outing) and I was worried he was gonna have an outburst on the strange former Press Secretary riding with us and that afternoon was one of the most stressful of my life.

Much more stressful than this afternoon. I should get some perspective on this all. Man. I think I am going home now.

Are you home yet? How are you feeling?

I'm still at work. I feel okay - better than I did. I am just having an allergy attack.

I was going home but then 6 police reports decided to come in all at once and I really need to do this.

But you're still breathing, right? And you have an inhaler? *worried*

I don't carry an inhaler cause this never really happens and I am still breathing and my chest is still tight but I am okay.

Should you go to the ER if your chest continues to be tight? (Freaked because of something that happened to someone I know which I probably shouldn't tell you about because of hypochondria issues.)

Dude. Go home. Any excuse to get out of the office is a good one. Especially if it's something serious like that.

Just go home and relax and feel better. ::hugs::

Don't tell me. It is bad enough I am watching "House" tonight.

No - I'll go home in a few minutes and lie down and take some drugs and be fine. I feel a bit better already.

I was worried about you. Don't over do it 'k?

No one has ever told me to not over do it. This has never ever been a danger with me.

::marvels::

Thank You.
