I went downtown to get a half-price Charlie card (fare card), which went pretty well and quickly even though I was a little distracted. I have a card with "TEMP" written on it in red, good for 30 days while I wait for the permanent card to arrive in the mail. I had a card that had expired last year, and one that stopped working one day. I brought both of those with me, and they transferred the value to my new card.
Next stop was the farmers market at Copley, where I was surprised to find tomatoes that looked and smelled worth buying. I picked out several, and didn't buy anything else, because I didn't want to risk squashing the tomatoes.
The final stop was a nearby CVS, where I got an RSV vaccine, and then bought some band-aids. When I had paid and was ready to leave, I realized I'd left my hoody on the chair where they vaccinated me, so I hurried back upstairs, found it, and assured the pharmacy clerk that yes I was OK, I'd just forgotten something. I would have gotten it sooner, but was waiting two weeks after the flu and covid boosters, at my doctor's recommendation. However, given the news, I am trying to figure out what if any other vaccines I can sensibly get before the anti-vaxers take over the Department of Health. Is five years and one month too soon for another tetanus and whooping cough booster? (In normal circumstances, I might be considering it seven years after the last dose.
On the way home I was feeling a bit worn out, mentally more than physically, but I remembered that I had achieved the primary goal of this outing, the half-price Charlie card, and both the secondary goals.
