Flu Shots Suck!

So I got my first flu shot ever today.

Let me just say I HATE needles. Like really. Ouch!

After getting the flu back in February, I decided not to repeat that hell of 4-5 days again. They offered free flu shots today at work, and I took advantage.

A few years ago, they handed out hand sanitizer amid the great flu shot shortage.

This morning there was a mad rush for people to go cram into a tiny lobby, roll up their sleeves, and get pricked. Some of the men had to take their shirts off, but I refused to remove my blouse for some health dept chiqa to get her sexual jollies.

Amid some discussion and debate about whether or not to get a shot because of the potential side effects...I took the plunge.

Now my shoulder and back and upper arm hurt and I feel tired and achy.

This post was totally lame but true.

We got poked last Friday...both of us. One of us felt just fine afterwards (me). One of us didn't feel good for three days (him).

I totally take me chances and skip the shot every year.

I am a real pussy when it comes to getting poked. (Hee hee...with a needle, you goof!)
