flu-free is the way to be!

immediately after school today i "took in" my annual flu shot. you may ask, "who...of all people...would give you a flu shot?"

none other than ms. wendy walker.

so, while she was poking me with needles and injecting (hopefully) some good medicine, i thought to myself,

"how could such an evil child come from the womb of this kind-spirited and gentle-hearted woman?"

ahh...the complexities of this life.

in other news: i LITERALLY just got off of the phone with a new friend. her name is cindy. the phone call went as follows:

"hi...is andrew kubas available?" (pronounced koo-BISS----amazing! she got it right!)
me: "yes...that's me."
c: "hi...i'm cindy calling on behalf of the minnesota republican party reminding you to get out and vote tomorrow for tim pawlenty, mark kennedy, paul gazelka, paul koering...." [she went on to list every republican candidate in minnesota]
me: "well thank you for the reminder! i will CERTAINLY do that!"
c: "thanks for your support! i hope you have a WONDERFUL evening!"

oh man. the joys of making new friends!
