37.9 degrees - not high, not low
Went to the doctors today for fever. I guess it's stress related, from the comms ball work and failing my SEOC yet again.

Sitting in the waiting room, bracing against the air-con, i looked out the glass door of the clinic. An indian boy, perhaps 3 years of age, was sitting on a joyride vending machine. He was in a reverie as the 20 cent thrill played a nursary rhyme while bobbing up and down.

When the song ceased abruptly, his eyes widened in surprise. He looked down on the ride, he inspected it in panic. In desperation, he knocked the head of the plastic horse. Dismayed, the boy dismounted, cast a final woeful glance, and ran off to his mother. He was innocent and pure.

My temperature didn't drop, but i felt better.
