No Mom and Dad will Never Understand...

i took a nap today. a one hour nap. then went to work. So i've gotten one hour sleep in the last day and half....and I'm not tired. I wasn't tired at work...and i'm not tired now. I hate when this fucking happens.
Question: I'll put it under a cut...cause its kind of a situation...
What do most people do in circumstances involving a person crying? Or visibly upset? I...get uncomfortable with these situations. I have no clue as to what would be the proper way of dealing with it. Today, at work, a situation occured. It was about ten. I'm doing paperwork up front and coworker is in the back doing dishes. She is cleaning and doing her job, nothing to make me take notice of anything. But when she comes up to the front and asks, "Briton, do you mind if I take a quick cigarette break?" I shake my head and glance up at her. And very obviously she had been crying. Her eyes were red, her cheeks were wet and she just looked like she had been beaten. I asked her, "Are you alright?" and she just said she was fine and went outside to smoke the cigarette. For the last hour of work I didn't say anything to her. She had to have been kind of crying through the entire hour because her cheeks were still red and her eyes were swollen when she left. And I felt either as the manager or a caring person, I should have said something or done something. But then...I don't like to get into people's personal lives. If they wanted to tell me, then they'd tell me, right? So, I left her alone. But as a manager, should I have done something? She was doing her work...but she was crying while doing it. ?? I dunno.
Anyway...The Gorillaz album is out. People own it. I don't. Why don't I own it, you ask. Well, nobody around here is carrying it. For some strange reason I cannot figure out, No Best Buys are carrying this album. Its in their ads...but is it in their stores...No. I went to Wal-Mart on my way home from work to see if they might be carrying it...they're not. Circuit City says they have it...but so does Best Buy. This is weird and very very frustrating!!! GAH! It shouldn't be this fucking hard to get buy a pretty much mainstream band's album! What the FUCK is going on!?
On another note: I love The West Wing. and Katie as a Wookie.
