hot

we had a scheduled activity at a highly restricted area yesterday. as preventive measure for H1N1, body temperature screening was being done at the gate.

so i drive over and the guard scans me. he says, "38˚!"

me: what?! i have a fever???

i was feeling fine actually.

he re-tries. still 38.

uh-oh... i am the one with continuing access here. all the rest only have a per activity pass. and then i'm the one who's going to be denied entry? how ironic : }

then the guard says he'll try my neck. scan. he smiles, "37˚, ma'am"

whew! what a relief... they let me in.

from as far back as i can remember, i've often been told i'm hot. LOL! not hot as in hot-hot, nor that hot-hot. rather, hot as in, you seem to have a fever. i dunno whether it's good or bad but i guess my body temp's just naturally that way. it has never been a cause of concern before. with this H1N1, it could be a potential source of problem. i dunno what i should do, or whether i should do anything at all...
