vaccinations and whatnot

I saw an infectious disease specialist last week (funny to watch one's reaction when I tell them that). Though there are no required vaccinations, I just wanted to be extra careful. I'm now vaccinated against Hepatitis A, cholera and diphtheria. Once I fill my prescriptions, I'll also be immune to typhoid and malaria. I'm just imagining the changes to my genetic structure that are being made.

I had hoped the shots would leave little marks on my arm, you know, like battle scars. No such luck.

  2. ha! indeed! something else that sounds cute, but isn't -- pink slip. it sounds like a party dress or something.

    That's because Immuno Girl's skin self-heals in a matter of seconds.
