My Near-Death Experience

Some of you may have noticed I kinda dropped off the board for a while. What happened was a combination of me catching the flu and then going home for winter holiday.

Turns out I caught a rather nasty form of the flu (or my immune system was really tanked from it being Finals Week). When my ride arrived to pick me up, I was semi-conscious (I could walk and hold up a conversation, but barely) and running a 105.6 degree fever. Anything over 106 can cause brain damage, so I was pretty damn fortunate to end up with no real damage other than not being able to remember the week I was on TheraFlu and Sudafed.

So...uh...word of caution. If you start feeling sick, get help.

Wow. I'm glad you're doing better, now. I hope no one else gets anything like that.
