Got a flu shot today. I hate shots. Sitting in the waiting room for the nurse to attend me, I sat there a little nervously knowing that I would momentarily be injected with medicine to help protect my frail, exercise free body from the ugly flu.

Ever since I was young, I have hated getting shots. I don’t like the pain. I am a sissy when it comes to pain and shots are just one more way for me to hurt. Nevertheless, as I’ve grown and endured more shots, they become more mundane. I know the pain is on its way but it doesn’t bother me as much. Despite this fact, I still do not want my eyes to ever see that needle as it thrusts through my skin into my veins and muscle. Even the thought of it just bothers me.

On a different note, I just recently got ahold of every episode of the Thundercats!! Talk about excitement, I am psyched about sitting down for many hours reliving my past watching these cartoons. It’ll be interesting to see how awesome they were even if they are a little silly. Sometimes, being sentimental isn’t so bad. This is one of those times.
