  i left work early on wed as i was starting to cough and my nose was running.

  i thought it was just a cold.

  got home, took some stuff, went to take a nap...and i doubt that i left my bed for more than 4 hours in the next 48. i did check the mayo site and found i had 7 of the nine listed symptoms for the flu.

  Thanks for all the warm and fuzzies, people. You are great.

  More of the same today - slight fever, some coughing, a bit light headed. I was getting sick to my stomach watching the Ravens field goal unit setting up to kick the game winner with 2 seconds on the clock. How does a professional kicker miss a 40 yard field goal? In a Dome no less!! So the Vikes are 6-0 and I felt much better. But I digress.

  I was a bit curious about what the term "fever" meant as all the web sites suggest that one doesn't leave isolation until 24 hours after a fever has subsided. I knew that 98.6 degrees is average normal, but I also know that body temp fluctuates constantly throughout the day depending on what your doing. Doing a little searching I found that a normal range of temp is from 97.1 to 99.5 and a reading of 100.4 is required to be considered a significant fever. The info wasn't very helpful in determining whether or not I am still a contagious menace to society or not. One lesson learned from this is that I should have been writing down my temps from day one to develop a trend line. I wrote down today's readings but I don't think I have enough data points to be much help.

  I'm calling my doctor tomorrow.

  I left work early on Wed as I was starting to cough and my nose was running. I thought it was just a cold. Got home, took some stuff, went to take a nap...and I doubt that I left my bed for more than 4 hours in the next 48. I did check the Mayo site and found I had 7 of the nine listed symptoms for the flu. The biggie was a fever - 100.9 degrees.

  Anyway, this morning I woke up and noticed an odd sensation. I was hungry - I mean starved - which shouldn't be surprising given I hadn't ate hardly a thing since coming home on Wednesday. I took my temp and it was 98.1! The fever was broken! I got dressed and ran a couple of quick errands. It was a beautiful day in northern Minnesota and I was tempted to go enjoy it, but common sense prevailed and I came back home to rest a bit more.

  A few hours ago I felt a bit dizzy which I thought was most likely caused by residual OTC flu meds and maybe some dehydration. Just for fun I checked my temp - 99.9! WHAT THE WHAT!! Now, as I watch the ALCS (Go Yankees), my temp is up to 100.5. WTF!

  So thats where I'm at. I'm a little dizzy, which isn't even on the list of symptoms, and the fever is back. I'm thinking I'll call my doctor on Monday if the fever is still persisting. This self isolation business sucks when one doesn't have cable tv. Thank god for hulu.

  Now, send me some love with a big "aahhh, poor baby." Thanks in advance.

  BREAKING NEWS! BREAKING NEWS!

  Rome - White smoke has been seen pouring from the chimney atop the Sistine Chapel signaling a new Pope has been elected by the College of Cardinals. An audible gasp was heard, quickly followed by loud ovations, as the Cardinals announced that US President Barak Obama is the new Pope. Upon hearing the news, the President said, "I am humbled." While admitting he is not even Catholic, Obama said, "Heck yes I accept" adding later that he would not be changing his name because he thought the practice is "stupid." This marks the first time a sitting US President has been selected Pope.

  BREAKING NEWS! BREAKING NEWS!

  Beverly Hills - Academy of Motion Pictures, Arts, and Sciences President Sid Ganis has announced that US President Barak Obama has won the Oscar for Best Actor, Best Costume, Best Director, Best Writer, Best Screenplay, and Best Picture. The unprecedented announcement brought an audible gasp followed by wild applause from the assembled press. Upon hearing the news the President said, "I am humbled." While admitting he wasn't even in a movie during 2009 Obama said, "Heck yes I accept." He later quipped that he hoped he would also get one of those gift bags that are handed out to participants. "I heard they are filled with some great stuff," the President stated with a laugh. Nominations for the awards close in January 2010. The Academy Awards will be broadcast on March 7, 2010.

  BREAKING NEWS! BREAKING NEWS!

  Cooperstown - Major League Baseball has announced that US Presdent Barak Obama has been named the 2009 World Series Most Valuable Player. The announcement brought a loud gasp from the assembled sports writers followed by wild cheering. Upon hearing the news the President said, "I am humbled." He added that even though he prefers basketball over baseball he would indeed accept the award. Predictably right wing agitators noted that the timing of the announcement was suspect. One was overheard saying he couldn't understand how anybody could win Series MVP when the World Series has not been played yet. "For crying out loud the playoffs just started," he noted with obvious disgust. Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi released a statement saying that it was "unfortunate that some Americans would seek to diminish the latest accomplishment of our President when the entire country is facing an uncertain future."

  BREAKING NEWS! BREAKING NEWS!

  Washington - The US Supreme Court has ruled that President Barak Obama has prevailed in the Florida recount and therefore wins the 2000 Presidential election. Developing...

  I used to cue those records up at the hall back in the 1970's. Ah, memories. Did anyone play the records of kingdumb songs that featured the society choir? If I remember correctly it was an all male group (the Betheltones). They were awful.

  It seems that many of the rationalizations about Polanski's crimes could be modified a bit and applied to Phillip Garrido's crimes. Maybe the two of them will end up being cell mates.

  i watched him on tv yesterday as he quarterbacked the raiders/chargers game and was proud of the way he handled himself.. my interest in him is due to the fact that his grandma - who watched him while mom worked - lives down the street from my brother in mobile, alabama.. he's a fine young man, and i predict great things for him next season.. sylvia.

  Here's a QB in full bloom. The receiver is pretty good, too.
