Default OT: Anyone feeling a little sick after the EXPO?

Just curious if anyone else is sick cuz I have cold-like symptoms such as sore throat, dry cough, stuffy nose, and sometimes headache, nothing really major. Hope it's not SARS but here are the symptoms of SARS incase anyone wants to know.

"The main symptoms of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) are high fever (greater than 38 C or 100.4 F), combined with a dry cough, shortness of breath, or breathing difficulties. Chest X-ray indicates changes compatible with pneumonia.

Other possible symptoms include headache, muscular stiffness, loss of appetite, malaise, confusion, rash and diarrhea."

You guys are sick, 'cuz y'all stayed at Holiday Inn.

Should've camped in the 20 deg weather. Freezes any virus & germs in the air.

I'm not feeling sick at all and I was hanging around you for quite a few hours on Sunday.

Maybe some neck and shoulder cramping from the long drive, but that's it.

I had a little bit of a sore throat sunday morning, but that was probably because some of the campers were melting down tires and other items and we were camping downwind of the fire..

101deg Fever
I took the last two days off from work.
I had to get a penicillin shot. (I am still sore from the shot...and it wasn't in my arm !! )

I think the sickness is from
1. Change of weather and not being prepared. In NYC is was 40 then 80 then back to 40 in a matter of two days
2. Allergies.

I camped. My pillow got wet somehow Saturday night. Sunday afternoon I started feeling like crap. Just now starting to get over it. Camping in freezing weather sucks. My happy *** will get a hotel room next time.

I don't have a clue. All I can figure is that all the heat from the heater made condensation and it all pooled on the ground or something. Either that or someone got freaky on my pillow while I was sleeping I -was- with 3 guys...

I was actually sick before the expo and took TONS and TONS of Vitamin C and water to get well for the expo. Then I got sick again afterwards.

I wouldn't have missed the expo for anything. Not only was the event one of the BEST track events that I have ever attended, it was AMAZING hanging out with ITR owners from around the country. The memories from this past weekend are priceless and I will be telling my grandkids about this weekend (whether they want to hear about it for the 50th time or not !)

So, actually, the expo didn't get me sick, I really got sick when I came home and stayed out late on Monday night. The temperature dropped and I wasn't prepared. I was feeling fine after the expo.
