15 Second Flu Shot, didn't even have to turn off my truck.

Got to hand it to my doc. Got a call last week of free flu shot clinic on the next Friday (today) so I signed up.

Text hit my phone around 12:30, reminding me of appointment at 1:20.

Pull up to the office on the dot and his team was fully PPE'd up and waiting by the door of his office. I masked up as the nurse walked up to my window. I rolled it down, she asked my name, verified my insurance provider by asking "Is insurance still the same?" I said "yes" and she swabbed my arm and then poked me with the needle.

The nurse looked at me with obvious Smiley Eyes(tm) and said "Have a great day!"

15 seconds, if that from time I rolled down my window.

Get your shot! Or not...not my call really, so ymmv.

I've been in longer lines at Starbucks.

Just googled, they're doing it everywhere.

I'm so F'ing happy with my Kaiser Obamacare.

I can't recommend them enough.

"Smiley eyes"

One salutary effect of everyone wearing masks is that it really draws attention to the beauty of the eyes.

I have always been a eye person. Windows of the soul and all that, but her eyes were gloriously green and sparkly.

Emerald eyes...

Administered quickly and efficiently by the masked, gloved, and face-shielded pharmacist. One less thing to worry about.
