So there we were in the emergency room... - Kevin McNulty

Origin

This phrase was first used by Kevin while watching his son climb a tree. He yelled up to his rapidly ascending progeny, "Be careful, I don't want to have a 'So there we were in the emergency room...' story to tell about this!"

Usage

The phrase is now in general use amongst Clan McNulty, used by one family member whenever another engages in something falling into the "accidents waiting to happen" category.

Coincidentally, Kevin finally got his story to tell when son Sean sliced his thumb open on a can of tuna at school. His wife was on business travel at the time, so when she called home, Kevin could finally say "So there we were in the emergency room.."
