Temperatures Rising

I knew that it was coming, the impending signs are there, stiff joints and pains, raising core temperature, stuffy nose tract & eyes. So time to starve a fever, feed a cold?

That wasn't the only contributing factor to my rising temperature. On the way back today, near a petrol kiosk at my place, the left lanes were clear, indicators to turn left into the petrol kiosk on, rear view mirror clear, side mirror clear, initiating maneuver only to hear metal on metal crunching sound. Apparently a di*khead motorcyclist decides to swerve onto my left from my right despite me giving indication that I'm turning left. Now I'm left with a dent on the rear passenger door. His defense, none cause it was clear he was in the fault as witness by most. He meekly said that it was a small dent and he was hurt in the process. Serves you right, PDD 68 and what goes around comes around.

This is the second time this year I was hit by a motorcyclist. I don't want it to escalate into the third time, where it could inflict more injury to the rider. Loss of life is not something I would wish for, but at the moment of heat and anger, it was the only thing that seems to flow out of my mind. Rant over, calm under medication.....
