fluenza

I got a flu shot today, which I hadn't done in years.  Since some people get sick from it, the idea seemed like a wash.  But it's apparently a requirement if you do any kind of work in a hospital. So now I have a little pinprick, a not entirely unpleasant ache below the shoulder.  Hope I don't have to use having the flu as a cover story anytime soon.

Well, if you need an excuse for some time off remember there's still no cure for the common cold.

That is true. If I seem to be getting a cold or I'm just getting over one, I'll probably go to wrok. If I'm in the middle of a bad one, maybe not.
