Whoa - anaphylactic shock = not cool

More on the ex-girlfriend:

She calls me from work, stating she thinks she's having a reaction to anchovies - some girl that doesn't like her at work or something like that might have pulled a joke not realizing the seriousness - and that'd she'd take some Benadryl she had left, and I'd bring her some more from the pharmacy. Of course, she's already popped her last Epipen, so that's a no-go. I'm not too happy that her bases aren't covered, but I tell my friend who had just come over that we'd do beers some other time, and left.

I get to the pizza place where she works, and she's breathing pretty heavy when she gets in the car, I tell her we're going straight to the E.R. As I'm driving she starts going out on me.

Thank god for snow tires. Blew by a fire truck with the lights on, hammer down. Got to the hospital, a stranger had to help me carrry her in (she's a touch plumper than me ), I put her on the floor, she's barely breathing, and the triage nurse asks me if somethings wrong and how can she help me.


"How about a little bit of FUCKING help here?!?!??!" was my reply.
