last january-febuary I got the flu...BAD. And I not only got it once but twice... well not really twice I probably didn't fully recover from it the first time and it just came back to bite me in the ass even harder. My doctor put me on 2 antibiotics and 2 steroids. I was miserable. Now flu season is just around the corner. My office is offering free flu shots this month and I'm debating whether or not to get it. Nightmares of my most recent flu haunt me that I want to get it. But I've been hearing stories that the shot doesn't really work. Not to mention, they inject you with the flu and you could experience mild flu-like symptoms, and THAT is a scary thought (body aches, miserable head aches, chills, etc.). Also I'm not good with shots (whoa that has so many implications), my gardasil shot, made my arm feel bruised and itchy for like 3 weeks.

well I signed myself up for the shot, decided to suck it up and take one for my immune system.
the boyfriend is sick and I've done a pretty good job of staying away. or so I thought.... my throat is itchy today. oh the horror that lies ahead...
