Speaking of Jewish penicillin, I could go for some matzo ball soup now. I may have to make some tonight.

My youngest always runs really high fevers. It's not abnormal for him to have 103 - 103.9, so I've dealt with this for a long time.
This is what you need to do:
-take a tepid bath or shower (it's gonna suck because you are going to be shivering and freezing, but you have to do it to bring your core temp down)
-take motrin or advil (obviously) but when you have a fever that high, it usually will start to spike about 3 hours after that. Take Tylenol 3 hours after the motrin or advil to help keep it from spiking that high again. But you can only do that double dosing for about a day....no longer than that.
Right before he left for the Army, he came down with something and he woke up one morning with 104.2. That's the highest I'd ever seen it and even I was starting to get a little panicky.

Been in bed all day, hurting like a ****. Probably the worst sleep I've ever had. Must have been the fever, but I couldn't fall completely asleep, just in that state where you're kind of dreaming but feel on the verge of awake. And holy hell what crazy dreams. I was watching some shows on Food Network and after I dozed off I kept having dreams I was in some of those shows where they're trying to find a chef, or iron chef and other crap. I was so frustrated, waking up ever 20 minutes all night and all day. At one point I was dreaming that I was in New York trying to buy some stuff from a street vendor and Alec Baldwin and some woman were following me with a machete and were going to kill me because I wasn't using a Capital One credit card.

Its back down to 101 now.
I've never had high fevers, of course I've never been sick very much. Last night was probably the highest one I've ever had.

I've always thought of flu as just a bad cold/virus type deal. It still amazes me how many people die each year from it. So its nothing to play around with.
Feel better!

Speaking of those jerks. When the crunch hit the credit card companies panicked and tried to renege on their 3.99 fixed rate till paid off cards. Chase, Citi, Cap One. Their only option to keep the terms was to close the accounts. Which didn't bother me because I only used them for cheap loans - not as credit cards. (My hunch is this allowed them to move frozen accounts off balance sheet with some game with Treasury/TARP.)
Except Cap One wouldn't play (even though cust svc said they would) so I had to roll out of them fairly quick. I even wrote the lamo CEO and complained that I followed his cust svc directions but he wouldn't honor it. I'll never give them a penny from me again ever. I rolled it over to couple of 0%x12 then USBank @ 2.99 fixed till paid. Ha!
Saturday I get a $50 check from Chase. They were sued and made a settlement over trying to change terms improperly. Usually a settlement is like $2 after the legal fees.
So I'm wondering... is Citi and Cap One going to be mailing me a check?

Some flu's are aching type flu. Last time I had it was way back in the 90's and it was aches all over.

Cancelled my dentist appointment for tomorrow. Didn't figure they'd want to be digging around in my mouth while I'm coughing and running a fever.

Would you think of anything else from me?
Oh and I would be able to take it to the track too. It would come with a set of drag radials

Thought it was interesting during chemo treatments that the docs had me watching temps. They were emphatic that if I hit 101.3 I was to call 911 and get to ER immediately. Don't know what that was about. I mostly stayed in (my) normal range - even some 95's.
I learned that my normal temps are in the 97's. Don't know who came up with this 98.6.
