Fever dreams

8:20 - 101.3
8:50 - 102.0
9:30 - 102.1
9:40 - 101.5
10:53 (just now) - 101.1


hard rock radio station temperatures always give me the shivers, and in recent years I've moved away from chicken noodle soup to ice cream despite the palsy that comes shortly after. i had to wait awhile after the ice cream so as to not tarnish the results - that's some scientific method going on there. about once a year - hopefully never more - i come down with some medical condition during which fever dreams come. ever since i was five or six, i have tended to have the same dream before the fever breaks. i am told it involves eyes rolling back in my head, but cannot verify. Tonight is going to be a chore; tomorrow shall be glorious.

There are different theories as to the content of the dream. The earliest hypothesis, somewhat morbid but not inconsistent with my childhood like of Tonka trucks and big machinery is this:

I am lying in the street (?) and something runs over me. Evidently I said it was a street paver (the ones with the large circular front wheels that crush/smooth the road surface) when I was younger.
