Vaccine?

[JamieGeek]

Had our first shots on Tuesday.

Only side effects I've noticed is some extra dreams about obeying Bill Gates and we've noticed a Microsoft surveillance van parked out front since then.

Other than that, no pain...

So you're not feeling as if everything tastes like deep-fried Oreos?

No soreness at all.
But I keep flashing back to an old Pink Floyd song:

Second shot is supposedly the one that hits hardness if it hits you. I take the second Pfizer shot next Friday.

That's a trip I can't wait to take...

In all seriousness: The worst possible side effects can't be anything at all like that the virus can do to you...
But I'll be happy to take the worst of it: as long as my Missus gets a free pass!

My second shot of the Pfizer took me by surprise. Shoulder hurt a little but a had a headache like I was really hungover... Lasted less than a day. Not bad really.

It made you feel like you were back in college; didn't it?

For those waiting for their first (or second) shot, some 'get in the mood' sounds. For those that 'are done', just enjoy!

We are both in our 60's and (after the 10 day waiting period) went out to have dinner the first time since February 2020. We went with our neighbors and camping buddies (also fully vaccinated) and it was nice to have a sense of normalcy.

Brace yourself for the pro-vaxxer cancel culture. They'll come at you hard and fast.

We did the same thing. Friends of ours that we go to dinner with on most Saturday’s, have not been out to dinner since the beginning of March. All of us are fully vaccinated so last Saturday we went out to dinner. We really enjoyed it.

The reason behind that is that any given site has only one type of vaccine. If you prefer a certain type just ask before making an appointment. To easy.

... how come I always miss out on the fun?

Here how it went for us.

First shot I didn't feel anything, my wife had a sore arm. Second shot didn't do anything to my wife but gave me some flue like symptoms.
