Interesting Night

In the sense of the Chinese curse. Tossed and turned, woke repeatedly to scratch, mouth dry much of the time. At one point I woke in a heavy sweat, and had to take some of the covers off.

I'm wondering now if I had a fever. I feel fine this morning, better than I did most of yesterday. I could have had some sort of mild infection and excused the symptoms as residual effects of recent weather changes.

Lack of Taste

People who use the phrase "plain vanilla" thinking it's accurate have never actually tasted vanilla.
