1st year - The husband says, "Oh, sweetie pie,
I'm really worried about those nasty sniffles you
have! There's no telling what that could turn
into with all the strep that's been going around.
I'm going to take you right down to the hospital
and have you admitted for a couple days of rest.
I know the food is lousy there, so I'm going to
bring you some takeout from China Garden. I've
already arranged it with the head nurse."
