APC to the rescue!

What's APC? Read on.

I have a bloggy story for ya, but since I don't have pictures, I drew some for ya. Enjoy.

A week-ish or so ago, I went outside to clean the car out. JimmyD was inside with the kids, and I was in a hurry so I could get done before leaving for Book and Pudding Club. (Which is awesome, by the way.) After a few minutes, JimmyD came outside with a jar of calamine cream.

"How much was in here?" he asked.

I looked inside.

"More than that," I said. "Why?"

"I think Sunshine may have eaten a bunch. I found her with this, and she had it all over her hands and face."

He then went inside to Google the effects of eating calamine cream and get the number for Britishy Poison Control. I finished the car, then went in to see how things were going. JimmyD had gotten Sunshine drinking fluids, and called the poison number he had found online.

It didn't work, so he tried another....

( Several minutes later....... )

(Lots more minutes and lots more attempted numbers later.....)

(That's his phone....)

I went into his office to see if I could find any other numbers to call online. The webpage on the screen was one JimmyD had found about what happens if you eat calamine cream. At the bottom of the page, a phone number caught my eye.

AMERICAN POISON CONTROL!!!!!

Of course! I picked up the phone on the desk that calls America for free. (Voice-over IP phone for JimmyD to call American co-workers... and for us to call family.. and poison control)

"Hello, Poison Control..."

30 seconds later, I was speeding off to Book Club, secure with the knowlegde that the worst danger to come from Sunshine's snack was a few explosive diapers.

THE END

**Just so you all know, I guess you call NHS Direct for poisonings. Or America.
