Stoney Vaccinations

You just never know sometimes what your doctors have in store for you when you go to their office for an appointment.  The nurse comes out of the armory, calls your name, battle ax in hand...sound familiar?  No, not really.  I always get a kick out of my conversations with these people.  


Nurse:  "Jonathon?"
Me:  "Yep."


I stand up and follow her back to the armory.  Her ax still has blood on it, I swear.  She was fighting dragons today.  With Matthew McConaughey.  London is gone right now.  I can see the flames from my chopper.   

Me:  "How are you today?"
Nurse:  "Oh, better than you!"  (Not a good sign when they say that, I've discovered.  Never.)


Me:  "Uh-oh...why's that?"
Nurse:  "Cause you're about to get 5 shots."  


Oh goody.  Bring on the pokage.  5 shots.  Measles, Mumps, Polio, something, and something.  My mind trailed off after Polio.  I was focused on the fact that my arms would soon like a buckshot target.  


By the time I get home from there, I'm actually a little stoned.  I think the drugs were taking effect, but thankfully not whilst I was driving.  I do remember texting my wife something about 'being a pepper too.'  Who knows.  I can't be held responsible for what may or may not have occurred while I was under the influence of too many vaccinations.  My phone will remember.  Someday, I just might have to put something together that encompasses everything I've said unaware while undergoing treatment with these drugs.    
Drugs are devilry I tell you.  Just devilry.  But they make for great entertainment.

  1. Well....guess there are advantages to anything, if you can find the right perspective....!
    My suggestion is, take it and run!
