7 Days

Day 1
Hurry and get the supplies, it's the Dawgs and the Tide, part 2!  Let's Hunker Down!
Hey, looking good at halftime!  Course, we've been there before.
She's seems warm?  Maybe it was the dinner last night?  She seems fine otherwise.
Oh man, here it comes.  It's happening again.  Bama is Bama...oh well.
She's not well?  OK, I'll come home, but we'll watch the 2nd game there and--
Let's just go to urgent care.
You're not sure?   Look at her.  There's nothing?  All I'm doing is keeping her mind off it.

Day 2
Well, you've got to check in to the bathroom before anything.  I know it hurts.  I'm here.
No, I'm not going anywhere, and neither are you.  Just relax, we'll get through this.
Try to eat this, if not, that's fine.
Well, maybe we should go back to urgent care, because this isn't working.
She does seem fine, but this is the lull, you have to believe me.
Let's try this.  Can you sleep?  I know, but you need the rest.

Day 3
Checking in to see how she is.  The same?  OK, I'll get supplies.  She has to be miserable.
Look, if the doc says to ease into the usual food, why not?
Oof, ok that didn't work.
We can do the same tomorrow.  Just keep me posted.
Sleep good, we'll get over it.

Day 4
I know she should stay home, but can she go out?  Let's go to the doc.
Her personality is completely different, Doc, but I would too if...
No, they're still in there.  You can hear she's in pain; anything for that?  Anything?
I gotta go back to work, but please let me know how she is.
I'll stay here in the morning.  You're so tough.  We're going to get through this.

Day 5
Yup, I'm here all morning.  Yeah, we're getting better, aren't we?!
I know, but you if you can eat this and everything is good, then we'll try other stuff.
No, can't do mac n cheese.
OK, gotta go to work.  See you in a bit.
Budget cuts?  I'm sorry, I wasn't ready if...are you sure?
I'm sorry, it's just that this has been a hard week.
Fuck it I'm going home for the day.

Day 6
I'm trying hard not to say bad words or the wrong thing, but do you know what this means?
Don't you like it when life is normal?  Why can't it be normal?  And...what does that mean?
Man, that rain is coming down.  Hoo wee. 
Wait, is that a squirrel eating our Halloween pumpkins?
Hold on, I'll get it.  Stay inside. 
Tomorrow, we'll go places and stuff.  I'll check my work from now and then.

Day 7
Well you do seem better.  OK, let's get stuff at the library.  No, we have to go here first.
I can tell you're feeling better because you're trying to boss me all over.  Knock it off.
I said tell me about Christmas presents but I'm not getting you anything.
If I get you that, you're gonna lose it, and I'm out $5.  Remember what I said on Wednesday?
Come on, let's go.  Hey, watch out!  Pay attention to your surroundings!
How much is that?  Christ, listen to me...sure, OK.
(Sigh)  Yeah, the weekend.  Well, you're back on it.  You really want a cheeseburger? 
Tomorrow?  OK, tomorrow.  This has been quite a week. 
Getting better.  Didn't know we had to, huh?
