I admit that it was in a long post of mine from earlier. Here you go: quote:
I admit that I got a text from Poppy's husband a little earlier. I admit that I sobbed hysterically as I drove up the road, and I quote: "Just leaving the hospital now. She is improving. They think she will be able to make a full physical recovery." I admit that Poppy's Dad got in touch with me this morning and said that the road to recovery is steep and slow, but the doctors are still stunned that she didn't die. They didn't expect her to breathe on her own again. I admit that sometimes asking for a miracle and believing that it will happen is amazing. I admit that I'm glad Thing 2 just called me and said she doesn't want us to go to the baseball game in MD (that I never promised to take her to in the first place, but she swears I did). I admit that she said something about a baseball game yesterday when I was on another call about Poppy, and I don't really know what I may or may not have agreed to at that time. (Sort of like Henry Blake on M*A*S*H, when Radar and Klinger would get him to sign forms, yanno?) I admit that I already had one kid call me early this morning and ask what time her mom was supposed to drop her off since she was riding with us to the game. I admit that I told the kid that I was still in bed, sick for 3 days, and had no intention of going to MD for anything, much less to watch a baseball game in the rain. I admit that the kid was like... "Ummm, well, my mom thought since [Thing 2] was going, I could just get a ride with you all." I admit that I said, "Honey, tell your mom you'll have to get a ride with her because we aren't going." I admit that I want to go back to sleep, but I'm afraid there will be 4-5 kids running in at any moment, since kickboxing just ended.
