09:20 - Wait a minute. What time is it?	(top)
There wasn't much evening bloggage last night because I had what has to be the quickest and most intense fever ever; about eight hours of my life have been sort of snipped out of my consciousness. I've had a mysterious sore throat for two days, and at about 7:00 last night, after I picked up my car and while Chris and I tried dumbfoundedly to fix a bizarre Sendmail problem, I started feeling really cold. And tired. To steal a line from James Herriot, I felt as though a group of strong men had been kicking me enthusiastically for several hours. So I got home, I lay down for a while, then moved to the couch downstairs with my comforter, curling up in a desperate attempt to get warm while the TNN Star Trek marathon played. Then dinner was ready-- and as I sat up, suddenly I was unbearably hot. No food could I manage; the best I could do was to go upstairs, fling my window open, and drape myself out into the night air. We didn't seem to have any Tylenol or whatever you're supposed to take in these circumstances; we didn't even have a thermometer, so I have no idea what was going on. Whenever I've been sick, which is seldom, I tend to always have a single dream which plays for hours and hours, never seeming to make any progress story-wise. Often it's a dream about a bunch of green wire-frame hexagons and squares and pentagons floating about in black space, like a CADKEY project. But not this time; this time I was in charge of removing the foul language from a whole bunch of TV shows. (Apparently these shows were filmed with all the foul language in, which then had to be edited out.) Except the shows weren't on video or anything; they were physical blobs or sticks or something, piled up in a huge sticky mound, and if I cut a piece of bad language from one show, unless I really knew what I was doing, it would appear in a different show. So it was like a game of Jenga or Kalto or something, and I played it all freakin' night. So now it all seems to be over-- not even my sore throat remains. I'm still a bit dizzy, though... but I don't think I'll stay home. I've never yet missed a day of work due to being sick, and I'm not keen on starting now. Wish me luck...
