Done deal

Glenn at Airtreks received everything today and my tickets are being processed. Now for some bull shit.
I'm supposed to get two more travel vaccinations before I go. The shots cost almost $400, but if I was in San Francisco it would cost me $0 because my insurance would cover it. The shots are supposed to be done within a certain time frame to be most effective. I decided it was best if I stay on that timetable and went to a place near my sister's house today.
The doctor is a nice guy, but I rattled off to him all the shots I've had up to this point. He was kind of amazed by my knowledge of my shot history. It wasn't really impressive since I had the yellow vaccination booklet everyone gets when given travel vaccinations. Then he tells me they don't have the vaccines I need in stock. Dr. Schubert told me I should've told the receptionist I only need those vaccinations. I tell him I did. He apologizes, but still charges me $25 for the office visit, or basically us shooting the shit.
Fuck it. I'm going off schedule and doing the last shots when I get back to San Francisco.
On a side note I had to spank my five year old nephew Stefan because he wouldn't go to bed and was screaming. I almost cried afterwards because it really did hurt me more than it hurt him.

Sounds like you'll have a great adventure. On the latter note, the day after I "potched" my daughter she hit a "friend" over the head with her metal lunch box. That behavioral report hurt me. Would she have done that had I not laid her across my knee?
