Titer Schmiter

The mumps and rubella titers came back A-OK. The measles: equivocable. Is that even a word!? I didn’t make it up, that’s what the nurse practitioner said on the phone, only she stumbled over it like it was some kind of tongue twister. I felt like telling her if she can’t say equivocal, it doesn’t count so I’m just going to pretend I didn’t really understand a lick of it.  La la la, no comprendo… So I got a booster yesterday and it stung like a bee. But I’m not sore like the last time unusually. Was it the arm stretches I did beforehand? Or maybe the lady was smart and stuck me somewhere it wasn’t going to be sore. She told me to put my hand on my hips then I noticed her feeling around my arm like she was looking for some valley in my rippling bicep and tricep. I’m not really sure since I wasn’t looking at any of it.

Me!
