Boosted!

I took the bus through the snow & slush to an absurdly hippy – because it's in Wallingford – pharmacy to get my COVID-19 booster. I'd signed up for Johnson & Johnson (AKA Janssen) because that's all I could get an appointment for anywhere in Seattle. But when my time came, I asked if they happened to have any of the RNA vaccines just lying around. They did! My booster is Moderna, baybee!

I texted, well, lots of people while I was waiting to have an anaphylactic reaction or not. The Tickler pointed out that I've had shots from all three manufacturers approved in the US. Pokévax: gotta get 'em all. My son, who was lobbying earlier for me to get an RNA vaccine instead of J&J, is most pleased.

It's only been seventy-five minutes, but yeah, it does feel like it's for real. We'll see if it kicks my butt as hard as J&J did. I sincerely hope it doesn't, but if it does, I have tomorrow off work. Yes, I'm hydrating.

I really can't wear enough socks when there's snow & ice on the ground, even with waterproof hiking boots. Sheesh.
