This is my second significant cold in about a month. Sucks!
Last night was especially scary. Serious sniffles turned into a fever, which turned into a high fever (spiking at 103). Then my building's power inexplicably went out for three hours. That made it a bit scary. First I called Dr. Bestfriend to ask what i needed to watch out for. Then I called two people who live within 20 blocks just in case i needed to go to hospital overnight. I suddenly remembered the one really good reason to have a roommate.
So today fever comes and goes, and outside one period of extreme weakness and dizziness, i think i'm improving. I'd better be -- i blew a deadline today and really need to file that story tomorrow, fever or no.
sigh.
