the sound of silence.

i have been sent home from work with a cough and laryngitis. not having a voice is very frustrating; i am a fairly verbal person. the internets are now my only communications pathway to the outside world. and text messaging, i guess.

my thermometer has unaccountably converted itself to metric. i cannot figure out how to get it back to imperial. it's a thermometer! it only has one button, and that turns it on and off. i am confused. however, with the aid of an online converter, i have discovered that i am, in fact, running a low-grade fever. whee.

i'm thinking maybe i should go to bed. i will have another cough drop.
