Addendum to previous post
Ok, so now I have a witness. It isn't just me, possibly reading more into the situation, or blowing the whole thing out of proportion. He actually had the nerve to come up to me, in front of my conscious, breathing, alert and oriented co-nurse and co-blogger pal and, you guessed it--straight up asked me on a date. To Old Chicago, no less. Besides being dumb-founded and strangely without words, I had the presence of mind to only say, "no, I'll be spending my four days off with my family that misses me." I'm sure this isn't the end of this interaction. Unfortunately, I've been as polite and direct as I could without telling him to go bat his eyes at someone who isn't HAPPILY married to a very large, muscular, possessive-in-his-own-right man. And kudos to that wonderful man for not taking advantage of my sleepiness to drive down to the hospital and introduce himself to said security officer. Ugh. This has not been fun, and I hope it's over soon.

No, no... it certainly isn't just you. If he was a more manly man, I'd say asking out a married woman in such direct fashion took cojones - but I'm still not too convinced he has descended ones. I think it took a staggering amount of idiocy, and I think your reply was perfectly tasteful yet also crystal clear. (shrug) People.
