This really irritates me

Posted by Steve on October 18, 2003 at 23:35:21:

We're very good friends with the couple across the street. They have a 2.5 year old and a 1 year old and it's nice to take our 1.5 year old Hannah over to play with them. So we planned to get together tonight and eat pizza. We get over there and their youngest is sitting around as usual. His nose is running a bit, but I don't think anything of it since kids just have snotty noses sometimes. After hanging around for a bit I hear how congested he is. It turns out he's nursing a cold. Hannah was poking at him and even took food from his plate at one point in the evening. I'm certain I'm going to wake up to find she's got his cold.

I don't know what you folks do, but if Hannah is sick we warn people before they bring their kids over. I'm pretty irritated at this whole thing.
