I swear it was just a Township Board Meeting with the other two members of the board. The meeting was so dull, however, that it almost made me turn on the TV to see what was on all but about four channels once I got home.

Not us old geezers, I had my "Batman" pj's on and was asleep by 8:30pm. Didn't miss anything either. 😉

Tried to watch the Saints game but by halftime it was painfully obvious where that was going so I went to bed at 9:00... nothing else worth watching was on 😎

I think this is better than the debate.

I got so bored last night I went to YouTube and was looking around and found a version of "I Wanna Be Your Dog" by Sonic Youth and cranked that up a little.
On doing a search I soon was in the middle of downloading mp4 and converting to mp3 some 153 versions of the song by different artists.
So I now have a playlist of "I Wanna Be Your Dog" that will last all day..........
:p

Probably just allergies.

Out fresh air comes from the Rocky Mountains or the Gulf Of Mexico.
Dry air comes from across West and Southwest Texas.
The last couple weeks the wind was coming from the East to Northeast and that is always bad for my allergies and fishing.
It is has shifted to out of the north and brought me some relief and the remaining part of that bit of bad air is bearing down on your area now.
When I can smell the paper mill that is to the northeast of me, it is too late. My eyes burn, my nose and mouth swell up and I have to move to a diet of the liquids from chicken and vegetable soup.
Been that way since the late 70s and work inside paper mills and around chicken houses triggered the problem.
At least it is not prevailing and does not last very long.
good luck

Paper mills are nasty places. I spent a couple of weeks working in one years ago, and I still remember the smell. I also remember the signs that said something like "beware the white liquor." I don't know what the white liquor was made of, but apparently if you saw it getting loose the thing to do was run. My recollection is that the black liquor wasn't as bad, but then I may have the two of them mixed up.

If you ever were exposed to the old blue line copiers, this stuff is much worse.

Black liquor is the liquid drained from washing, debarking and cooking the tree chips and contains a concentration of the sap.
Those are emptied while hot into an open concrete causeway that flows thru the mill.
Very aromatic, imagine the smell of pine licorice and scalding hot liquid pine tar.

White liquor is the caustic remains from bleaching and processing the wood pulp to be some degree between egg carton and news print to cotton white.
It is full of ammonia and acid like substances.
The fumes can burn and kill.

Both are loaded onto tankers and shipped out to be processed into byproducts or distilled back to their original form.

I would agree with the allergy idea, except the 2 days of 100+ fever and extreme weakness have my nurse friends suggestion I found the flu. I also have been trying to figure how i could cover myself in icy hot, since I hurt at every joint.
