FWIW, I was also startled at how peaked you looked on Saturday, although I also thought "I should have guessed -- she went to the hospital. Duh." The surface impression I had was "Was pretty sick. Getting better rapidly."
Looking back at the comments I wound up getting, I see that that's the impression I was in fact giving to most people. Next time I'll try something more clear, like "OMG!!! OMG!!! I'm going to DIE!!!1!!1!"
I did look like hell on Saturday, didn't I. curiousangel swore that he was going to meet y'all at the theater, damn it. Otherwise I would have put on pants.
(Also FWIW, I was afraid to touch you too much because I wasn't sure what might cause distress. Germs don't bug me much. Especially when they're allergies.)
Heh. Actually, not touching was probably a good call. One doesn't want to be hugged all that much when one is struggling to breathe - and actually, even being patted or rubbed on the back was bothering me. Which was a shame, because curiousangel does that all the time.
