I’d never been so fucking scared. Finest woman I had ever dated, looked like she was going to dump me. Finest job I had ever had, looked like I was going to be laid off. Lost the girl a month later, kept the job for a few more years. Fuck me was I sweating, most literally.
Oh, and there was the whole “everyone dying, Spanish Flu in my lifetime” thing. And the social isolation and 1,000 other weird things that stemmed from that.
Know what? That may have been the most stressful month in my 50-years (at the time).
