I could have done without this, Part II

Particularly sitting up every one or two hours almost as if my lungs' discomfort were on some kind of demonic timer.

One bit of good news: temperature's climbed down from last night's high of 38.4 to 37.4 as of Noon today. Still coughing a bit here and there, mind you, and I am not going to the OSFS meeting today as a result of this particular issue.
