my son has a fever. it's pretty high -- 39.5 C/103.1F. he used to get high fevers but he hasn't in a long time. he's four. just gave him advil and if the fever doesn't go down we'll call the dr. but i always feel like there's something else i should be doing. any ideas?

What AC? On the train if I'm lucky. Not in the flat and only fake-eco-AC at work.

Hello fellow nerds. Peanut butter and honey on a rice cake is pretty yummy.

Maplenerd! You're right about the rice cake.
Due to an expected twist in the final quarter of the contract I am working on, I am more or less doing a half-week this week. Today I did nothing other than grocery shopping, internetting, and napping.

That's how I picture retirement, pero....at least for the first week or two.

mapes, you and the cuteness have the same taste in snacks.

dragoncita. how is the cuteness doing today? is he fever free?

Post by tinier_dragon on Jan 24, 2013 4:05:22 GMT 2
he's okay. he's fine after he takes the advil (singing puff the magic dragon over and over, for example) but the fever comes back. no school tomorrow either. thanks for asking.

I can't rememeber the last time I did snow stuff.....

Post by Peromyscus on Jan 24, 2013 12:53:45 GMT 2
There's maybe 2 cm on the ground. It has to be shoveled, and brushed off the cars, because it's going to stay below freezing until Saturday. At least it's not 2 inches, or 2 feet (60 cm).

Post by auntieannie on Jan 24, 2013 14:47:01 GMT 2
yeah, brush it off quickly, pero, before it sticks. because then you are stuck with it until temps go up. sorry, you probably know all that.
afternoon all... I'd better go and eat lunch now so byeeeee!

Pobrecito papacito. Annie, I do know that, I learned from bitter experience some years ago. Many morons who drive Chelsea tractors never learn to do that so I have to give them wide berth lest a frozen sheet of ice sails off their roof straight toward my windshield.

Good morning. Sorry to hear your little potato is still poorly, dragon...what does the doctor say? We officially got 23cm of snow overnight, but it looks like a lot more. Fortunately I don't have to drive anywhere today, but it doesn't look like walking will be easy either.
