Veronica, your name is no longer "Princess Zippy" but just "Princess."

Just how would you see leaking gas pipelines (an increasing occurence in California), a leaking roof, vandalism that needs to be investigated before school is open, a violent event that might shut the school for a while (this IS Antioch), etc. I consider the call list a courtesy.

Losing 15 mins of sleep one time a week is so onerous that your husband physically confronts co-workers? I know Thom so I know he had no intent of physical intimidation, but I bet there are plenty of crazy spouses out there who might have.

I can't imagine Bubba talking to my co-workers or management about a work-related issues unless I was unable to do so my self. I can't think of one place I've worked where I would NOT have been chewed out for his actions.

Just my take on it. Save your energy for when you lose sleep over truly critical issues, a loved one's health for instance. Loosen up, lighten up and chill.
