No Shots

As what is supposed to be dry and crusty turns into a warm liquid that will not stop dripping, a thought runs through my head.

Maybe it would have been a good idea to stop at the drug store that was advertising flu shots on the sign outside the store.

But no. I did not do that. Why should I? The flu? Who gets that?

Also, it is not like I have been living anything other than the life of a hermit. Have I been going out? No. Well there was the holiday party thing I went to Friday. But that was Friday!

I was fine Saturday. I was fine for most of Sunday. But not for all of Sunday.

And so here I sit. I lack tissue paper, so I have to use the sleeves of my shirt. Wondering what the evolutionary reason for liquid snot that drips out of your nose is.

I have a small supply of Alka-Seltzer Cold Plus. That is some good shit. At least it works for me. Keeps me functional.

So that I may spread my pestilence around to those who do not hold my favor.
