Feeling Super Lame

I feel super lame that I let this affect me. A co-worker rejected my need for help with a wordless shake of the head. He reported his victory to his cubicle neighbors..his reason was lost in a wispering vapor. I felt like I had returned to a grade school playground..my stomach tightened and I insisted on remaining silent around him and his work mates.. I was more upset by my reaction to his behavior then his behavior..normally I would wish the person well and release it.. maybe it is my strep throat not talking
