Now I did a job. I got nothing but trouble since I did it, not to mention more than a few unkind words as regard to my character so let me make this abundantly clear. I do the job. And then I get paid.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Morals and ethics. I probably lack morals but have plenty of ethics. (I think.)
I love Chili's Southwest egg rolls, for lo, they ROCK. But it's too late for lunch now, unless you're on the West coast.
I am random today.

First off, hippo birdies to people, and much congrats to Jessica and DH if I haven't said it yet.
Now then, hivemind question.... what are the benefits and drawbacks to getting a flu shot. Our office is setting them up for free (if you have our insurance), and I don't know whether or not I should get one.

Benefits - if the flu goes around, you may not get it.
Drawbacks - needles owie.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
advantages if you have a compromised immune system - asthma , strong allergies, diabetes - any thing where you get sick and it means you are sick for a week ormore - it is one more thing you can avoid. If you are around people that have a compromised immune system - it is one less thing you bring to them.
disadvantages - sore arm , and if you were comming dowmn with a cold , it may be worse than usual
neutral - it will only keep you from getting the flu that is in the vaccine
other notes - don't get them to early - If I recall correctly, the vaccine is most potent in the three months following the shot.

Happy Birthday, Brenda!!
If you work with kids, I'd say get one because they're little petrie dishes--and they can suffer more from the effects of the flu if you pass it on to them.
One drawback, however, is that you never know which virus is out there. The vaccines are estimated on which strains are the most likely ones currently being passed around. So a vaccine is not guarantee you won't get some strain of flu.
A pro, though, is that if you do get it, you most likely will suffer a lot less from the infection.

Happy Birthday, brenda!
I found out this morning that Elvira, Mistress of the Dark will be the grand marshal at a racing event in Memphis this weekend. Yes people, the end is truly nigh, as NASCAR has discovered a promotion that is seriously tempting me to spend $50 to watch auto racing.
Be careful, Matt. The NASCAR crowd is an entirely different world.This is true.
Oooo. Cass, I just noticed on the entry list for the event that Montoya will be racing. Almost, makes me wanna go too. I'll have to see if I can manage special passes.Oh?? Hey, Matt... Need a beardtastic date?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I had a nasty mozzarella sandwich for lunch with a nasty mostly-cabbage salad situation from the gross new place we keep ordering staff meeting lunches from. Annoying! I had to get popcorn after.
