Hey, preaching to the choir. I thought our Lady of the Perpetual Sea Breeze was the real deal until the Divine Miss J walked right through that door and right into my ass—which is where my heart is…physiologically. I could show you an x-ray.

What is even happening?

I have a fever. Interesting. l seem to have no idea what feverish feels like. But nurse says fever.
How much of a fever, ita? Is they think that's why you fainted?

Now tagless for your comfort.

If it's low-grade, ita, you might not feel it too much.

There's a gas station a block and a half away from my house. I walked down there to get gas for the mower today. In the alley, an older man in a huge pick-up truck asked me if I was headed there to get gas.

Um, yeah. Carrying a GAS CAN, so headed to the gas station. Then he says, "Hop in, I'm going right by there."

Dude, it's 2005. I live in a city of a million people. I don't know you. Sure, I'll jump right into your giant black truck, Mr. Serial Killer, Sir. What. Ev. Er.

Aw. Poor guy was trying to be helpful before the serial killing, Cashmere. That's so rare these days.

What do you think feverish feels like, ita?

It's official. I'm over the OC.

He did look and sound awfully nice. But so did that cute Bundy boy.

Ted always made sure the lady he worked the night shift at the crisis line with got safely to her car. He told her sometimes the streets weren't safe.

She was very boggled when it all came out.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Feverish? I'm just guessing (I can't remember having a fever -- I know I've not been measured over 99 degrees since I started doing the measuring -- 20 odd years) that it involves being hot -- I may or may not feel overheated, but I'd think that physical symptoms (sweating, dehydration) would manifest whether I was experiencing the feeling itself.

This isn't much of a fever, 101, but really -- this is the second time I've fainted in 20 years, but only the first I've noticed a fever. Not a big deal to them, but it's filling me with curiosity.

I almost got out of there with him being sure it was vasovagal (something unknown to him caused my BP to drop), but then I asked for my ears to be irrigated, because sometimes it helps with the ringing in my right ear.

So now I need an MRI, because unilateral tinnitus and fainting is symptom of something, and he needs that ruled out before he can go back to his vasovagal diagnosis.

I also managed to snag new migraine meds, so that was cool.

Our wings are not tired

Yowza, ita!

Hope they figure it out.

I'm about to head off to work. I'm rehabbing the sound at Space Mountain in Disneyland. I'm way to giddy about this gig.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh my, ita. Good luck with that.

When I was feverish, I was randomly hot and cold and mostly just woozy and tired and OVER IT. But that lasted about two weeks, so you can see the OVER IT part.

Jesse - no need to be a smartass.

The who with the what, now?

Also, I just had the fab evening out -- short and sweet and with FREE FOOD. Rock.

I have to eat salty food! I'm so grossed out, but it does mean I can order in for medical reasons.

Still, gross.

Yeah, something about the possibility of a benign tumour causing the ear noise and stuff. We shall see. Will make appointment with ENT Monday. It's probably just to rule it out.
