Default Fever

This is just too funny. I have been sitting here for the last little bit looking around the site. I was a little bit sick before I went to work this morning so my husband was concerned. Just now he came over to me and kissed my forehead then with a look of great concern said I felt really warm. He put his hands on my face, then my neck and finally my forehead. He said he thought I had the fever that was going around. When I asked him "What fever?" (he had me worried), he started laughing then walked away saying "That Corvette Fever! You are always on that website!" :lol: :lol: He's so patient!

I've had the fever for about 3 years, I wish my wife was as understanding as your husband. :D All I get is dirty looks, so I do most of my forum browsing at work. :lol:
I don't think there is a cure, I just spent the last 7 months tearing my car apart and puting back together again. By the time I was finished I was sick of the damned thing, then I spent this afternoon driving it around in beautiful 68 degree weather, and the fever is back!!!

Vettedreams, I think after almost 27 years it's more a matter of resignation!
