Quietly nod and just walk away...

Came into practice today and saw one of my girls dressed in her boots and a nice skirt and cute blouse.  She took a big spill yesterday... so I went over to ask, "You doing ok? Still feeling it from yesterday's fall?"

"Yeah... that.  And I having my period.  So I can't practice." 

(PAUSE... THINK)

10 years ago... someone did the same thing at work... and I said, "Oh, I understand."  Only to have two laser beam eyes incinerate my head with the roar of, "YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND!!!" 

(TIME IS TICKING... SAY SOMETHING!!!)

(Quietly nod). "Glad you can still be here to support us!" (And I walked away - with head intact).
