Poor Unfortunate Soul
That poor, poor girl.
I wish you guys could’ve seen it. Some unfortunate dork was running with all of her might to get down the subway stairs to make it into the car and it just wasn’t meant to be. She tripped over the last stair and lurched forward.
It was the especially embarrassing brand of trip ‘n fall; the kind where you don’t just ((splat)) take a fall. You trip forward and you keep trying to save yourself but stumbling….Save yourself, fall forward, no save yourself, so close!!
Her overpriced sugar-free vanilla soy latte went everywhere, completely staining her shirt that isn’t anywhere near as cool as she probably thinks it is.
Everyone stared at her as she let out a dejected whine, sounding quite a bit like a goat in labor.
Uch. Poor girl. What a way to start the day today.
…And that girl was me.

Abreva for Greeny too
Todd didn't mention in this torrid tale than I too, fell under the addictive spell of Abreva. Abreva is a seductive lady...
For over a week she (Katie, not Abreva) and I would swap stories on the phone, both of us searching the mirror for any sign of a cold sore....Never happened.But we were both so tingly!! We were sure it was just a second away!!
Her paranoia is health and disease related which is grounded in science and genuine concern... I on the other hand was much more concerned that someone would FIND my Abreva in my bag... And then they would start calling me "Stepha-Herpes" (Or something more creative.)
So I used a little zippered pouch for the teensy tube of cream and then I put THAT in a wallet I no longer use and THEN I put in the inner hidden zipper pocket of my purse.
So, all of you; SHHHHH!!!!!!

Which reminds me...
This story reminded me of another story. One in which a few years ago, I felt a tingle in my lip.
Being a little um...hyper sensitive to bodily issues... I googled
"Lip tingling"
what comes up?
yes. HERPES. stage one TINGLE.
so...in an emotional panic, I ran to CVS and picked up a tube of this Abreva (NOT CHEAP!)
I begin to apply the product to my lip, three...to um...let's say nine times a day.
About two weeks go by, and it turns out, iIdidn't ever get a cold sore, and after being tested by the Dr. (yes went that far). Did not have (STILL DO NOT HAVE) the Herps.
but what did happen you ask?
My lip continued to tingle non stop, as my father explained was because my lip developed an addiction to the medication, and I was going through withdrawal.
to sum up = twenty dollars, and lots of tingling.
Totally cool.
OH
DEAR
LORD
It would appear that my employer is suffering from a bit of the ol' Herpes.
She just came out of the bathroom with white cream all over her mouth and said
"I'm falling apart. I have a headache"
not making notice of the BLOBS of abreva all over her face.
Want to know how I know she has Herpes?
Because she said to me yesterday "I have some herpes and the shivers"
She is from another country.
I assume she just has some like cold soars, not like the full on STD we all know and love.
But she does not know the social norms we have here in this county and how you don't go around saying things like "I have Herpes and my alarm clock did not go off"
