Cabin Fever

Yesterday on mythbusters they had an Alaska special. One of the things that they were testing was cabin fever. Well they gave a list of symptoms, and I do believe that I have experienced cabin fever .In December it was, Ben had left to go work with Bill for a month, the weather was cold, wet and miserable.I couldn't go walking ,and I was stuck inside. I matched two symptoms at least 1. irritability 2.jittery .I don't remember excessive sleeping or angry eyes. But three things that help me fight it are walking(long distances),cooking and cleaning. I think I need a drier climate for winter.

Science experiment

Yesterday Ben was telling me about footage of an atomic bomb he had recently seen. It is on a cloudy day, and when the bomb explodes the shock wave pushes the clouds away . This got me thinking "What would happen if a hydrogen bomb was dropped on a hurricane?" Well without sufficient data, and not having the supplies to test, I just decided to post, so what you will need is

1 hydrogen bomb

1 hurricane in remote region


Please send results (video if possible) (satellite imagery welcome )

Spider bites

Spider bites aren't much fun. I know i have had two. One couldn't be hidden, And the other one I didn't want to mention. The unmentionable one was first, and I had a hard time sitting down,and standing up again ,and walking.I made sure to put pillows down where I was sitting.But on to the other. The other was on my cheek,and it made eating less than enjoyable, it never really hurt. It was a dull ache that never went away ,and the ache slowly wore down the mind. Also, looking back the bite seemed to put my mind in a fog. Well the bites haven't made me scared of spiders(I know because my sister is.) But I am cautious, like killing any I see 'I mean really smashing them to as flat as they will go.
