My temp is down to 99.8 today, but it's been up and over the 100F mark for the last two days. Hopefully my brain didn't get too fried.

Needless to say, I feel lousy, crummy, wretched.

I've got the full blown flu: slightly nauseated, achy, congested, dizzy, feverish with sweats and chills, loss of appetite (moi? then you know I'm really sick), runny noise, hacking cough.

It has been a truly unpleasant last couple of days, and though I would surely benefit from a 3rd day in bed, I need to do a bunch of online grading of stuff I've promised to return.

So I'm off. I'll post more when I'm back to my old self.


By the way, R in St. Kitts has bronchitis, and she's on antibiotics. I don't think I caught this from her over Skype (more likely the virus was passed into me on a student paper), but it's been lovely to have someone to share my aches and pains with over the phone.
