vaccinated!

I just got this year's covid and flu vaccines, at my doctor's office. Given what the MBTA is like these days, I allowed lots of extra travel time, figuring that if I made my connections there'd be plenty of time for lunch before I got the vaccine, and if not, I would eat afterwards.

I did in fact make all my connections on the way there, so I had enough time to sit at an outdoor table in Davis Square and eat a mushroom crepe, and still be early for my appointment.

To my surprise, there were no other patients in the waiting room. I had only a short wait, during which someone walked into the office and I heard her telling the receptionist that she really hoped they'd had a no-show or cancellation because she needed the vaccine right away for Reasons. I'm guessing they were able to vaccinate her, rather than wishing her luck with a walk-in appointment at CVS.

And then I had a slow trip home by subway. My feet had started to hurt by the time I got back to the T station, so so I chose the trip that took longer rather than the one that would have had more walking.
