The dangers of thermometers

I took my temperature yesterday morning and it was rather low that is it was about 35.4 centigrade so I thought I’d better take it again in the evening
I looked at the thermometer and it was 41.1 so I talked to myself oh my god I’ve got sepsis!
I was too tired bother ringing anybody like 111.
I took it earlier today and it seemed to give the same reading but when I examined it closely I realized that somehow I had converted the scale into Fahrenheit.
The reading was 97.1 Fahrenheit so beware. I do find it difficult to read certain types of instrument or on various sorts of surface
How to deal with rage

Anger disorder
There is no clear diagnosis of an anger disorder, but the psychiatric diagnostic manual does include “intermittent explosive disorder”, which is characterised by recurrent behavioural outbursts representing a failure to control aggressive impulses. This affects 7.3% of the population at some point in their life and 3.9% in the past 12 months.
Anger, however, is a common clinical presentation that features across an array of different mental health problems, such as depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, substance use disorders and many more.
If you begin to notice that you are on edge quite a lot, do things that you later regret, are quick to react instead of respond, and that you have people in your life who have told you that you tend to get angry, it might be helpful to do something about it.
A doodle or a script
Halfway between a doodle and a script
The clouds make curves and lines across the sky
One looks like a face with sultry lips
We are nothing sailing in our ships
The universe is terror ‘vall’s awry
I can’t read this writing what’s the script?
Even Einstein could not give us tips.
All I do is let them sail on by
One looks like a face with sultry lips
Interpretations flounder, don’t know why
Little drawings doodles idle scripts
In the world of meaning there are cracks.
Light gets in but dazzles human eyes
This looks like a face with sulky lips
The clouds were slow but now they seem to fly.
Do they look at us as they go by?
Halfway between a doodle and a script
I see your face with swollen sensual lips
