Flu shots were free at work today, which is an exciting first sentence because apparently flu shots are very polarizing. Everyone I talked to told me flu shots make you sick. I've never turned down anything free so I was in.
The best part was my flu shot didn't hurt at all, but as soon it was over the nurse told me she needed to re-do it. The worst part was what she said after that:
"Sorry - that was my first time!"
I quickly shielded myself as she gently shook a cardboard box full of needles.
"That was my first time I ever messed up, is what I meant to say. Ever."
I wasn't convinced but I let her give me a second flu shot. It hurt.
At least now if I get sick I'll know it isn't because of western medicine, but because my office hired the local middles school librarian to inject us with a mixture of Kool Aid and ground-up tylenol. That stuff will make you sick. Flu shots are perfectly safe.
Haha! Oh my! Yeah, I get free flu shots from work too. I prefer free food, but you know, flu shots are a painful treat too, I guess.
ReplyDeleteI bet Kool Aid and ground-up tylenol makes an awesome party drug.
