"I've got a FEVER, and the only prescription is more cowbell!"

So two nights ago, I started to loose my voice. I progressively kept getting worse and started feeling faint and dizzy. By last night I had gotten so sick that my temperature reached 102 degrees at 4am. My sweet and amazing wife rotated cold wet towels on my head and chest to try to keep my temperature down. When I only got hotter, she practically had to force me into getting into our bathtub full of freezing cold water. That was quite the shock at 4am! I am sure I cried and whined the whole way through it, but after 15 minutes of shivering in the tub, I got out and felt much better. Now it is 10am and my temperature is down to 98.9, and I don't feel quite so bad. I hate getting sick. All I can focus on when I'm sick is everything I am missing out on, and focus on how inefficient I am being with my time.

Snow update:

It snowed about 6-8 inches out in Eagle Mountain yesterday. I have officially given up hoping that the sun will just handle everything for me. All that new snow on my driveway is standing on like 2 inches of ice. I wonder if I could pay some neighborhood kid to shovel it all off for me...
