Gopher Fever


I have spent the last two days in bed with some sort of crazy bug. I didn't have the usual symptoms that you would associate with the flu or a cold. My whole upper body was in serious pain, it hurt to breathe, very bad headaches, and a temp of 102+ bordering on 103 that just wouldn't go away. I woke up this morning feeling a bit better, though still not 100%. I took advantage of a burst of energy and disinfected the entire house, including doorknobs, Murray's toys, etc., then ran to Target, started the laundry and scrubbed floors. I am going to spend the rest of the day on the couch finishing recovering. I may have overdone. I just picked up the third installment in the Stephanie Meyer series, Eclipse, so between naps, I am going to read away.


On a final note: Do you think that Gopher fever may have caused my bug?

Marie,
He keeps getting cuter! I hope you are feeling better. Take care of yourself! It's so hard to be a sick mommy.

Hey now.... Gopher Fever is the CURE, not the cause ;-)

Now.... there are certain weekends in March which have been known to produce Gopher Fever when mixed with certain irritants and stimulants... (mostly of the fermented/distilled kind)..... but Gopher Fever is a sign that all is right with the world!!

Brad, you are hysterical. I will share this with Craig (who is anti-blogger).
