Good Morning California, Thanks for the Fever

In the middle of last night, I woke up to a fever and chills. I took a few IBprofeun and I was able to go back to bed. I actually was able to sleep fairly well for the rest of the night. When Maddy and I woke up it was 10:30, so I actually got a good amount of sleep. Once I got up, I realized that the fever had not gone away. I forced down some breakfast and then wanted to go to the store to get some medicine, and food for the beach. I picked up some oscillococcinum, which is supposed to work pretty well. We also got a case of water. By this point the chills were so bad I was shivering in the 70 degree weather.
Our plan was to walk to the beach, but Madison suggested that it would be a better idea to drive. Wanting to save a few bucks on parking, I declined the suggestion and wanted to walk the 1.5 miles to the beach. Maddy made some peanut butter and banana sandwiches that we were going to take to the beach. My body warmed up on the walk, but my stomach didn't feel too good. Once we got to the beach we relaxed there for a good 3 or 4 hours. Finally I had had enough of the sun, but in an effort to have a more fun walk back, I navigated us along a different route. A different route that we later found out was a mile longer. The heat was intense, and the walk seemed to take forever. Definitely NOT a good thing for my fever. When we got back to Kevin's house, Maddy made chocolate chip cookies and I did my best to try to ease the pain. This was about 5:30pm Pacific time and around 8 the thermometer read my fever as 100.4. I'm still not feeling that well.
Moral of the story: Don't go on long walks in the sun when you have a fever and always listen to your wonderful girlfriend. I don't know what I'd be doing if it wasn't for her taking care of me so well.
