Well, I wasn't sure if Ol' Billy was gonna be around much longer, but luckily I think the worst of it is over. For the last two weeks (starting on the 9th) I have been incredibly sick. The doctors weren't even 100% on what I had, all they knew is that I had some kind of virus. At first they thought I may have had menangitis, but the tests came back negative. They were pretty blunt in telling me that they were afraid for my life, which of course helped me rest easy. They wanted to keep me in the hospital for observation, because I had a 106 degree temperature and I was not doing very well, but anyone who knows me would know that I wasn't having any of that. I said if I'm gonna go, I'm gonna go...whatever. The only reason I was there at all was because it was require by work after 3 days. It was probably for the best, though. I was hallucinating and I was constantly freezing, even wrapped up in a very hot room. It was not looking good and man was it lonely. The doctors gave me some kind of anti-viral that eventually did the trick. Hopefully by the end of the week I'll be back to the same lovable me that everyone knows and has attempted to kill at least once or twice in their life. I guess that means that you're stuck with me at least a little bit longer. You'll just have to find some way to deal with it.
