teeter had a fever


Teeter had a major fever last night. I couldn’t sleep. I stayed up because I felt like I had to listen to her breathing. To make sure it didn’t stop. Or to make sure that the fever didn’t make her go blind or paralysed. Im not sure if this is even possible but it sounds like something that happened in the old days. Last night, she was so sickee (we use sickee when we want attention or caring – its baby talk) last night, and at one point I had to change her diaper- not something that she is psyched about lately – and after we did that and I was carrying her back to our bed, she started mini-vomiting. And it scared the shit out of me, I know that a fever is not a big deal but a fever with vomiting starts to become a big deal – and there was the color red in the spit up – and I thought Oh God shes vomiting blood! But it turned out to be a micro piece of a skin of an apple. I just about had a heart attack over it. But all this is my fault! Its my fault that she’s sick. I brought her to that manky hotsprings when it was busy and I brought her up on campus that day. Now that was frightening. I hadn’t brought her up to KGLT for a long time. She was squirmy and needy and those days are over for a while. I didn’t get to listen to much music and only got to burn two CDs, only two… Gabin, “Mr Freedom” and Malcolm Kipe “Breakspiracy Theory”. Anyways, its really about Teebird and me, and how I let her crawl all around the studio and then put her hands in her mouth and sometimes you have to just let stuff happen and its good for the immune system and everything but then, I was leaving, and walking by the school newspaper and the headline said “Pertussis Outbreak on Campus” and I’ll be damned (literally) if I haven’t put off vaccinating her and what if Teebird gets pertussis (whooping cough!) from KGLT?
