So my mother is obsessed with this version of Amazing Grace sung in the Cherokee language. (Her grandmother was 100% cherokee)


I will admit it is pretty...but...
it seems a little ironic to me to have an indigenous people singing a song that was written by the people who took their lands, destroyed their entire way of life, and pretty much doomed them to an...

So I woke up today with the fever at 102...and called out of work.
I told them I am going to the clinic...

Then...
the fever vanished I am at 98.2...and have been all day.

So...I am not going to go to the clinic and tell them I have been running a fever for 4 days...only to be sporting 98.2 degrees as a temp.

Think I might be taking a trip to the ER tonight. Fever hit 103.4.
That's too high for my liking. Oh goody...debt...

Sigh...

-Added-
Down to 102.6, so I might be able to wait and go to the MUCH cheaper clinic in the morning.

-Added again-

Down to 101.4. I think I will be ok overnight as long as I don't spike again. Clinic...

Fever broke and my temp went back to normal before bed. I was stoked...but then laid down and even though it was like 80 under my blankets...I started shaking uncontrollably. Oh good...
Now it's 4:45am and the fever is back...along with nausea and a lack of sleep.

So I emailed my boss and I am taking the day off.
It's cool anyway...deer head pickups are...

101.8 temp now...ugh...
It's been fluctuating all day. At least I still have half a gallon of Gatorade from cutting wood yesterday.
It's been sustaining me fluid wise.

Maybe no work tomorrow if I am still this bad. Fuck deer heads...I need rest.

Oh good...a fever of 101.4. That's how I wanted to spend today.

Ugh...

Just caught myself up to the current season of Dexter...and God damn...
Easily my favorite season yet.

So I did some thinking, and I think this past show will be the last time I go see Reel Big Fish.
First reason: I've seen them 10-11 times.
Second reason: Scott quit the band to raise his first child. That is cool for him, but without Scotty...the band isn't the same. Half the entertainment of watching them live is the banter between Aaron and...

Boy I loooooove getting snapped at when I ask if she wants help in the kitchen...

Good show. Found a 3XL Reel Big Fish shirt. Excellent.
Two complaints though.
Scotty was absent from RBF, and Streetlight didn't play the Point-Counterpoint/Keasby nights mash up.
Saddening...but all in all a decent show.

New life motto: You can't complain about not winning the lotto if you don't buy a ticket.

Story on that quote later.

There was a girl at the show...
