I'm burning up!

and my head hurts! Am I sick? No, I'm just The Alien! There are days when I might as well just take a lot of meds and stay in bed, except that gets to hurting too... I wish, sometimes, I couldn't feel pain, but I don't really want to be dead, so I just get up and suffer. I went out and was asked "how are you today?" I can't say "fine" if I'm not, so I said "I have a headache, but not bad enough to keep me in bed." I actually went to Church today - I was feeling better first thing this morning than later. That was nice and everyone was so glad to see me. Oh, and we actually had a cool day, well, cool for Texas, I'm not sure we got to 90 - and if we did, it was only like the low 90's. So, why am I burning up? Wish I knew...
