On the subject of stupidity
My father had a quadruple bypass on Friday, but my father told me not to go, so I stayed in Vegas and worked. My mother was kind enough to call me with updates every time she heard any news.
my coworkers knew what was going on, and were asking me for updates as the day progressed. Finally mom informed me that although he was not awake, Dad's heart was pumping on it's own again. I was excited and went to tell my coworkers the good news.
Me: My Dad's heart is pumping on it's own again!
Serena (the name has been changed to protect the stupid): I didn't realize it wasn't
Me: ummm he had BYPASS surgery, you know, on his HEART.
Serena: oh.
About 10 minutes later, she came looking for me.
Serena: How's your dad doing? Have you heard any news yet?
Ummm. Yeah. Okay.
My father's doing fine by the way. He's walking again (not far, and out of breathe) and sitting up, and he should be home mid-week.
