No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

Got my shot in October. Yay, metabolic disorder!

edit: I think I got a hepatitis shot at the same time.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I got me my flu shot, but I'm trying to remember what the other shot one of the triaging nurses asked me about was...hmm. I'm low risk in that I rarely am in contact with people with compromised immune systems, except hospital every week. So there's that.

Okay, I got to knuckle down. It might not be a day of onerosity for everyone, but I've got half a Twix and a cup of tea, and I'm going to hammer away at these testing documents. And only cheat by doing research on graphics tablets. Is it cheating if you make rules to allow it?

Oh! Speaking of cheating, I was thinking of this question easier--if you found out that the SO of someone close to you (family member, best friend), would you tell the cuckold the truth? Do you consider it more or less "getting in their business" to insist the cheater come clean?

Okay, I gotta go set some scope and shit.

Thrive to spite them

I got my flu shot and updated my Tdap vaccine. Vermont official has an epidemic of whooping cough. That wears off after a while so don't forget to get your other vaccines updated if you get the chance.

There's around 500 cases of whooping cough as of December, but it's 10 times the number of cases from last year which is why an epidemic was declared.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I got my flu shot last November. However, I also hear the match between the shot and this year's version of flu isn't quite as good as it could be.

That's right, it was a whooping cough shot I got.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Husband just got an update on his TDAP too. There is definitely a pertussis outbreak in WA.

Punishingly Intricate

I forgot to get a flu shot and now I am worried that it is Too Late!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

There was a news story last night on the flu so today there's been a run on shots. Am in line-I think there'll be shots left for me.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I got my flu shot a while back (thank you asthma). But today my head is slowly progressing to feeling like a bowling ball. I have too much to do to be sick, flu/cold/otherwise.

KCDW has been fantastic today. Right now she is at the laundromat with a bunch of stuff from CJ's room. K-Bug is going to join her in a bit (she is babysitting at the moment).

I'm just slamming tea and working.

I'm at a pharmacy so insurance won't pay. So I paid $36 rather than go to a clinic.
