Steph, that's great to hear. The fatigue improving.
Laura, yay boosters and flu vax.
And I myself will be wearing pink taffeta as chenille would not go with my complexion.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I've had the bivalent booster and flu shot. And next up will be Shingles vax.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
next up will be Shingles vax.
I got the biggest fucking goose-egg welts on my arm from the Shingles shots. I am, however, very likely an outlier who is just a delicate flower and has weird reactions. But my arm really did hurt for like a week after each shot, and the goose eggs hung around for a good 10 days after each shot. Upside: fully vaxxed; suck it, shingles!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
My husband definitely felt bad after both his shingles shots, but OTOH, shingles shots.

Our wings are not tired.
I had no issues with my shingles shot. The needle pusher at my doctor’s office is awesome. Never a bruise from blood draws either. Don’t know how he does it. Alas the vaccines tonight are at CVS so hoping for the best.

I cannot overstate how much my experience needs to be seen as the extreme outlier. If my body can overreact to healthcare, it WILL overreact to healthcare. It would be funny if I didn't suspect that one day a stethoscope will stab me or something. ("But Steph," you say, "stethoscopes don't have blades!" And as I'm getting stitched up from the tiny switchblade that popped out of the stethscope being used on me, I'll just mutter "Extreme outlier, remember???")

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
TCG had a very strong reaction to both shingles shots but that seems to be his experience with any vaccine.

adn I should not be counted.

I didn't and don't tend to have reactions, and it always makes me wonder, "Is this thing working?"
