How tenderly the melody keeps me hanging on

I had not expected to be shot in the shoulder this afternoon, but since I was right there with [personal profile] spatch for his latest jab against COVID-19, the staff of the Theatre Pharmacy offered me the same and I filled out the paperwork immediately. I had not brought my vaccine card, but was kindly sent home with a little sticker to keep my records up to date. The ability to purchase and eat a caramel bull's-eye after a minor medical procedure feels very old-school. My mother fed us tom kha gai and chicken satay and massaman curry and khao tom mad for antibody-building sustenance and Rob took a picture of me with his eyes closed. My plan for the rest of the evening is to lie on the couch and wait for my arm to fall off.

Thanks! It's a blind test, but I'm past the 6 week mark so now I actually know - let me check my phone - it was the Pfizer XBB.1.5 booster. My husband - rdm had the other one. AstraZeneca I think.

I have not had Covid yet and hope never to, despite interest well and truly dying
down public and government wise here in Western Australia.
