    Hello Orchidland, 	I have to say the "fever" includes anything that
    puts me into the "zone" where I lose track of time, and don't
    recognize ordinary stimulii such as hunger, thirst, or sleepiness! 
    Noise is tuned out and one's focus is complete on the project.  Hate
    to say it, but sometimes gardening does this to me and suddenly I'll
    realize I'm trying to weed by the light of the moon! My spouse
    doesn't understand this strange single-mindedness.  My children
    (luckily) survived quite nicely, thank you. 

    	Sometimes the "fever" wakes me up a dawn with a fascinating idea...
    and I really enjoy mulling over the latest project as I drift off to
    sleep.  We can count ourselves fortunate to experience the high from
    creating wonder from metal and stone.
