Merry Christmas, Flu!

A few days after Halloween I had my flu shot. Not very exciting news but I was really amazed about how this all happened. My health insurance had organized a vaccination day at a local hospital so I drove over to get my shot. Arriving there I wondered why all car parks were closed down and they were sending me once around the building... just to discover that they had set up a flu shot drive-through. Basically you drove in, showed your insurance card and your arm, got your shot, and could leave the hospital in a matter of minutes! I thought that is a great invention! The best and quickest flu shot I got so far :-)

You might wonder now what that has to do with Christmas... well, Halloween wasn't really over but you could already buy Christmas stuff in the shops while listening to Jiggle Bells playing in the background. Like this little bear or Star Wars (!) decoration for your Christmas tree. I guess this would go well with the Transformers, Power Rangers or Pirates of the Caribbean Christmas decoration! Truly amazing ... I am looking forward to Christmas already ;-)
