Two visits to the BMW dealership last week. It should be fixed now. It was the same code as last time, so they charged nothing to fix it. They gave me a 300-series loaner while they reprogrammed the computer and tested it. The300 ride is very smooth, amazing, but I still prefer my little sportster. I like to feel the road and hear the motor. It feels safer.
On Thursday, Daughter said there's some kind of virus going around, starts out like a head cold, and can go into pneumonia. She wanted me to be sure to tell her if I got sick so she could "doctor me". I guess she's worried that I might do like right after Sandy, when I got sicker and sicker and didn't say anything until I was on the verge of death (according to the ER doctor).
Friday my soft palate got hot.
Saturday my nose stuffed up.
Today it's not stuffed, it's running like mad. I took a nasal decongestant, but it doesn't seem to have done anything. I'm sneezing hard, a lot. I don't seem to have a fever - but I'm not positive because all my digital thermometers are weirded out. They are starting to lie. I really really prefer the old mercury column (or alcohol) stick thermometers, those things stay accurate forever, but they're next to impossible to find any more. Anyway, I rarely run a fever anyway, no matter what's going on.
Of course, I haven't seen Daughter since Thursday. She's always out. And I'm not going to call her for just sniffles.

Silence is golden, unless
you have a puppy. Then silence is suspicious. Very, very
suspicious.
