geeking out

May 11, 2008 03:17

OK, no more geeking out.

I am awake because I have a maybe 99.5 deg F temperature, but my set point is about 96 F.
I am awake because I don't like taking Tylenol, especially at night.
I am awake because I tried to sleep starting from 11pm and my body putzed out after 3 sleeping cycles. (At least I didn't wake up in the middle of one)
I am awake because my body doesn't know when to quit the fever.
I am awake because I caught something from staying up too late (suppressed immune system).

I am awake because I learned from my mom that the best thing to do with a fever is to encourage it, let it run itself out.
I am awake because I am stone-faced in the presence of pain.
I am awake because I refuse to take pills.
I am awake because I never learned how to sleep.
I am awake because I am only a lion in my pride.
