100 Degrees and Shivering.

I like it hot. I’ve always liked Palm Springs in the Summer. I’m talking about planning my vacation time around spending time in Palm Springs when it’s 110 in the shade.

Naked by the pool, hotter than hell and I’m just damn comfortable. The Comedian Bill Hicks would have described me as a lizard.

However, I’ve been running a fever of 100 plus for the past day.

It’s not unusual for me to spike at 103 and then drop sub normal for a few hours. What is unusual is a more or less sustained fever for long periods of time.

I spent the whole day in bed shivering off & on watching movies and South Park. The fever finally broke around 8pm last night. I’m currently sitting at 97.9F which is a relief. This is the first time in 24 hours that I’ve been clear headed, and not completely miserable.

Whatever has taken hold is not letting go, On the other hand… when I get out of bed to go take a leak, my balls are hanging very nicely… Now if I just felt good enough to do something sexual or perverted well It might be worth being sick

My sleep schedule is completely screwed up too. I woke up a little while ago and realized I wasn’t going back to sleep soon. So I’ve been reading emails that have been neglected for days. And of course catching up on the news.

One thing that this has taught me is that I can do without the network news… at least for a few days.

I’ve been watching stuff on Netflix, and my own disks. I haven’t even turned on the satellite box, leading me once again to question the satellites necessity.

Whitney Houston is still dominating the news. This surprises me, not because I’m heartless but because we’re so fascinated with tragedy. I too loved her voice she was an excellent vocalist. I just feel sorry for her family not only because of their loss but because they won’t have the opportunity to grieve in peace and solitude.

The unblinking cameras of the paparazzi will follow and detail every event and comment the family makes until well after the poor woman is laid to rest.

It just seems that we should have a little more respect, but then again I’m old fashioned.
