call HART crazy .. but
At 3am last night, my wife wakes up in the middle of the night .. I don’t know what dream she was dreaming .. but, I assume she was dreaming .. although she wouldn’t tell me what she was dreaming about …. she .. well, this is what she said to me – after waking me up .. at 3am …
HER: BoooBoo …. what are the symptoms of West Nile Virus?
ME: uuum … Booboo .. Go to sleep. Shhhhh..
HER: BOOOBBOOO … WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS OF WEST NILE VIRUS?
ME: BOOBOO! GO TO SLEEP! I HAVE TO WAKE UP EARLY TOMORROW! YOU HAVE TO WAKE UP EARLY TOMORROW! WHAT MAKES YOU THINK YOU HAVE SYMPTOMS OF WEST NILE VIRUS?
HER: BOOOBOO
HER: BOOOBOO
HER: BooBoo?
ME: *sighs..
So, I get out of bed at 3:05am and turn on the computer and wait until it logs on and have to do research now …
I suppose, I should pass my results along … here are the SYMPTOMS of West Nile Virus
Keep in mind, I’m reading this to my wife…
Mild Symptoms
* Fever, headache, body aches, mild rash, swollen lymph glands …
(she has no mild rash – or headache or body aches, no more fever but still has a sore throat and wanted me to continue)
Severe Symptoms
* Rapid onset of severe headaches, high fever, stiff neck, nausea, difficulty swallowing, vomiting, drowsiness, confusion, loss of consciousness, lack of coordination, muscle weakness, paralysis …
So my wife goes back to sleep .. and I ended up being unable to sleep the rest of the night, scratching myself from “phantom” mosquito bites!
