Well...

...I thought I had this thing kicked but I have now surpassed even the ferret in body temperature (102.4 at last check). I think my head might explode.

I showed J the thermometer, and he said, "What? You're fine."

I said, "but doesn't the fact that my fever is higher mean that I'm getting worse??" To which he replied:

"That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. You're fine."

I am not fine! I had hardly walk straight and have rockets of snot spewing forth every 2.3 seconds. I can't hear, taste, or speak functionally. I sleep more than a three toed sloth. In what universe is that considered fine?!?!

I reiterate: A physician as a spouse does not provide much sympathy when you are sick. Their perspective is skewed.
