28 Days To Go…
…and Monday morning just got good:
Sadly, this was shared between about 12 people and as such didn’t really last that long. Still, it brought a minor ray of sunshine into an otherwise typical Monday morning.
The afternoon was, on the other hand, marred by the dread of having my vaccinations at 5:30pm… it sounds stupid I know, but the knowledge that I’m going to be experiencing about 5 seconds of pain in the near future can really play on my mind.
Particularly as the last injection I had was TBG (I think that’s what it was called – you know, the one that leaves a raised scar on your left upper arm?) and that felt like someone was trying to blow up a balloon of poison in my arm.
Luckily, the injections were next to painless. All that worrying for nothing – but I’m not too upset :-)
My arms are starting to ache a bit though, which is expected but isn’t good… and I’m getting a little light headed. *
I think a little rest is in order.
Til tomorrow…
Pat
* The light headedness may be due to the fury from IE losing my post a minute ago, meaning a nice little anecdote about the injections is gone forever. I’m sure you’ll get over it, but I’m going to be angry for the rest of my days. **

BCG.
That little bugger turned my arm into a lake of pus for months.
Now I am not a big fan of injections either.
(Sorry to see you’re still stuck with flickery old CRTs in your workplace, too.)
Mmm, BCG. Quite unpleasant. I am also a sissy for injections, but its quite a good excuse for other people to feel sorry for you :)
Make sure you use that at work today (Tuesday)!
