Out of the Blue

With the arrival of autumn I mentioned to MrsBlue we should look into getting our COVID and flu shots. She doesn't mess around, and just like that we had appointments yesterday at the state-of-the-art medical facilities of our local WalMart. This was our first-ever experience with Inject-Safe Barrier Bandages, which I had never heard of before. The shots didn't hurt much, and these barriers are said to help, though my arm is pretty sore right now. But amid concerns about a more contagious COVID XEC variant this seems like a small price to pay. I didn't have much in the way of other side-effects, though I'm wondering if I ended up in a fever dream. I have this vague recollection of the Giants winning a football game and the first episode of a new DC Comics television series show being the best new thing I've seen on TV since Shogun. Something must have caused those hallucinations. It was probably the shots.

I will be getting a Flu/covid shot in the coming weeks. I had Covid again 2 months ago cause I didn’t want to pay €15 and have to make appointments to get a Covid shot. I really need to stick to having the shot. Tired of this wretched sickness.

Also I failed to bring along any immunisation records from the US with me when I moved. So they are now giving me a bunch of vaccines to bring me up to European standards. I know I had a bunch when I was a kid and my mother always made sure to get me any vaccines that were available.

But since god knows what health insurance I was using back then and how without that knowledge I basically cannot find any record of my shots. They have to redo them all here. This time with a record on file with the government.

Also me personally, with the cat I grew up with, I would not take them along camping with me. But if you have a cat that won’t just bolt into a dark forest on a whim, more power to you.
