I Got My First COVID Shot!
“I need vaccination, vaccination, vaccination…” and I got it! My first shot anyway. Yup, this afternoon, I got my first COVID vaccine. You might be wondering why the heck I was able to get a vaccine right now. You didn’t think I was quite that old yet. Well I’m not, but I have medical conditions …
