Feverish

I do so like to begin my blog posts with dictionary definitions, and I found a lovely one for 'feverish':

fe·ver·ish (fvr-sh)

adj.

1.

a. Of, relating to, or resembling a fever.

b. Having a fever or symptoms characteristic of a fever.

c. Causing or tending to cause fever

2. excited, restless, or uncontrolled, as if from fever.

Yum. So yes, I do have a fever. Not a high one — right now it's 99.3ºF. For most people that wouldn't be a big deal. But my average body temperature is 96.5-ish.

And I rarely get fevers. Rarely. It just doesn't happen with me. So when I have a fever — even a little one — it gets really weird up there in my brain.

For example: I came home from school sick yesterday, and was trying to take a nap. As I was drifting off I could have sworn I saw a purple Christmas elf crawling on my wall.

Um, yeah. Not awesome. Not at all.

This, I put a warning out to my friends. My Google chat status at the moment is:
I have a fever right now and am therefore not responsible for my actions. Anything I do or say must be taken with a grain of salt. Plus I hallucinated about a purple elf yesterday (in fever), which was weird.
This should apply to Blogger too. It is quite likely that not much in this post will make sense to anyone.

Anyway, today (thanks to my fever and horrible nausea) I did not attend school for our second day of Spirit Week, in which we were supposed to dress as celebrities. So instead of being an incredibly awesome Ke$ha, I watched approximately six hours of BBC's Planet Earth. Which is lovely, but is not Ke$ha. Really, it is an awesome series. The narrator is British, and that makes him very cool in my eyes. I love British accents. (To my British readers: Do you guys think we Americans have odd accents too?)

So. In a nutshell, today I stared at my laptop screen, pet my cat, and took my temperature frequently.

And not much else.

Isn't the flu so fun?
