Today, many people woke up with a fever. It's dreaded by families. Wives, mothers, and families don't know if there is a cure. Once you contract the fever, it seems to come back year after year. It can have lasting side-effects. It can cause you to stay up late when you need to go to bed. It can cause sudden outbursts of rage, excitement, and extreme mood swings. Doctors and experts say that literally millions are affected by this fever each year. As each year passes, more and more people become infected. It is, no doubt, an epidemic. The southeastern part of the United States seems to be affected more than other areas of the U.S. It does seem, that it also has hit larger cities in the U.S. as well.
I have contracted this fever. Mine "flares" up this time of year. It gets worse toward October-December. By January, it is beginning to wear off. You have family members who have contracted it. It causes you to sit in a focused state for hours….causing you to even forget you need to go to the bathroom. It usually causes the victim to get very hungry and have lots of liquids to drink. This still seems minute, compared to the mood swings that some have. There are mild cases and extreme cases. I think mine is moderate. I've seen much, much worse than what I have. Others, not so much. I believe that I have seen remedies that I like to take sometimes. But, other times, I just live with the fever.
That fever, my friends, is football fever.
