I've got a fever. Or "running a temperature" if you prefer that one. (Personally I don't really get the difference, but I'm sure someone will explain it to me soon enough.)
It started yesterday evening with me coughing and being really REALLY cold and then my hands got numb (I wasn't really too surprised - they do that from time to time due to bad blood circulation). When I went to sleep I was practically shaking below my cover. And my cover's one of those really thick, wintry ones. At then I was sure it was just because I was really tired - you know how it is, right? The body goes into energy-saving-mode and you just wanna sleep. (Why didn't I? Oh well, World of Warcraft was way too much fun at that point.) Anyway... when I woke up this morning my whole body was in pain - I wasn't cold anymore though so I went on to think that "h o o r a y ! I got a cold coming". It's a bit weird though, because in my case it's always tickling in the throat ---> sneezing ---> headaches, bodypain, tired for no reason---> having to blow my nose ---> coughing. So this morning I got the tip to check my temperature - at times like these I'm so glad I've stocked up so I have a mini-pharmacy at home. (No fever at that point though.) My headache got worse and worse so I decided to go to bed and try and sleep it off. (That's what I do - no pills, sleep it off. Yes, it's stupid.) It didn't work, I woke up about 15 minutes ago, full of feverish dreams and decided to take that darn pill. I gulped it down with water. That's when I realised that I had a fever anyway. The water tasted sweet. Sickly sweet, like a disgusting juice. Once again I grabbed my thermometer and checked and yes, I have a fever. I don't think I've had a fever in at least ten years. Might've been more - might've been a bit less. Wow... My biggest problem now is that I don't have stuff at home to do pancakes (I always want that when I feel like shit and don't eat) - but the applejuice next to me is really nice.
