chivalry ain't dead

This morning my alarm went off at 6:10 and I awoke with a pounding headache. It lasted until about 3 (even though I took meds--which goes to show just how bad it was--around noon). At 2, I went on my last 15. I misjudged the distance I was to a bookcase and ended up bashing my hip into it. I pouted, holding it as I kind of glanced over my shoulder (what I was looking for I do not know). I turned back around to see Frank--receiving manager--approaching me. My pout--and my hand--still in place, he gives me an odd look.

"I ran into the bookshelf."

His expression clears immediately. "Ah."

I laugh. "What? Were you going to defend my honor or something?"

"Yeah, I thought for a moment someone did something."

I laughed harder. "No. Just me having trouble walking. It's nice to know there's someone around who will defend my honor."

"You know it! I was about to whip around that corner and beat someone down."

"Then I can rest easy."

And that was my day.
