Flus and booze

This was posted over 11 years ago; my opinions, thoughts, attitude, and writing style may have evolved since then, and this post might have been different if it were to be posted today.

Got my flu shot yesterday. Though I had been meaning to get one I had been putting it off; at my old job they had medical staff come in the office to give free shots to anyone who wanted one and I hadn’t yet found a convenient pharmacy where I could stop in to get vaccinated. Then I saw this:

Flu shots with booze?? Sign me up! It turned out that One Medical Group was having a flu shot happy hour where you could stop in and not only get vaccinated, but you could also get some beer and/or wine and light snacks and mingle in their waiting area as well. I’ve got to say that two beers + two turkey and swiss sandwiches + one brownie + fun conversation + a flu shot = the most fun I’ve had getting a flu shot so far. It kind of made me glad that I had put it off thus far, hahaha.
