In short, displaying the symptoms of a minor heart attack. Thankfully the ambulance was there a few minutes later and as it turned out, he had a severe panic attack rather than anything more serious. That's my first happy thought (that he hadn't had a heart attack).

Then, after lunch, I spent the afternoon trying to catch up with what I should have done this morning. Hopefully I'll be able to catch up tomorrow.

My second happy thought? I am on my way home and looking forward to a very nice, if unhealthy, chicken in cheese sauce.
I think you deserve your chicken & cheese

We did not go out last night & had a perfect night with a Brandy & coke & some good Traditional Country Music. Nice to relax & listen to the words of songs.

Did no characters at all, just good old fashioned stand-up. Though if you closed your eyes you could picture Brian Damage or one of the Balowski boys.
