Oh, how things go
Last night, after music staff, I noticed that I'd missed a call on my cell phone from Melissa. I figured it had something to do with her not being able to make it to music staff and was getting ready to listen to it when the phone rang again with another call from her.
Evidently, the_lucky_nun had injured herself "pretty bad" at the kickball game. After talking to her and finding out that they were taking Tanya to the ER, I started throwing on shoes and getting ready to leave. Then the house phone rings, with Erin on the phone, and she and indierockgod are passing the phone back and forth explaining stuff, and then Derek pokes his head in the door and asks if I'd heard the news.
JESUS.
Eventually I make it over to the hospital, just ahead of Joel and Erin. Brent and Sarah showed up, as well... we took turns being with Tanya... well, with me leaving only to go use the bathroom and leave a note for the boys at the house. The Bittlingmayers ended up taking the boys for the night, and after two CT scans, we discover that her brain is ok, but she fractured her face in three places. They gave her drugs for the pain, because she kept saying that she'd "rather be in labor."
We finally got out of there around 10ish, and got Tanya home safely. Erin and Joel drove me over to Lyons Park, and I got the car. After running to get her Percocet and soft, no-need-to-chew foods, I left Tanya in bed, so I could come over to the station and put up the new rotation.
Long story short, I didn't end up getting to bed until nearly 12:30, with KJ stuff, need for dinner, and whatnot. Worked a few hours, then came up to KJ for my office hours. Fun.
