What does it mean when you feel really warm but you're violently shivering uncontrollably?
You have a fever. Probably a virus.

It generally means you're running a fever. The ibuprofen probably broke it.
That's what I was thinking. I don't feel warm anymore, so I hope I feel better by this afternoon.
I do too, P-C!! Especially by 5!!
P-C, do you have a thermometer? I feel like a hypochondriac whenever I ask people that, because invariably they don't, but then I say, "But you need to know if you have a fever!" and they look at me like I'm Howard Hughes in the really bad, keeping-pee-in-a-jar days.
But seriously. Get a thermometer.
I think the only people who have them are parents of young kids, and me, Howard Hughes wannabe.
Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go put new gloves on and cover the plants with kleenex.
I don't have a thermometer. I did wish I had one yesterday. The best part was that since I just read Feed, the whole time I was shaking I thought I was going into viral amplification.
I should probably buy some Tylenol that isn't expired too. The headache is a little better after ibuprofen. If I weren't intending to drive later today, I would take some of my expired Vicodin. For kicks.
for the record, I own a thermometer, and I do not pee in jars.
Even on your road trip?
I own a thermometer.
P-C, any other symptoms?
No, just tired eyes and a headache. It's been a long week with long, busy days and early mornings. I felt all out of sorts yesterday. I wonder how I got infected. It was a meeting with people from all around the country, so maybe someone brought along a virus. Or it could have been in the packed Make-Out Room on Friday night.
