Brain & Courtlin Get Their Flu Shots [WATCH]
You know what I hate? Needles. So what did Brain and I decide to do this week? Get our flu shots live on the air, of course! One of the lovely pharmacists over at the Edgewood Road Hy-Vee in Cedar Rapids was kind enough to stop by the studio this week to stab us in the arm! Ok, ok... it wasn't that brutal, but that didn't stop me from being a baby about it.
I've hated needles for as long as I can remember. I actually can't stand watching anything pierce or cut skin. The last time I got blood-work done they used a baby needle on me, because I was being so dramatic. It's never as bad as I think it's going to be, but the anticipation is what gets me. Somehow, though, I still managed to get my ears, nose, and bellybutton pierced and get five tattoos... funny how that works.
If you missed me being incredibly annoying and dramatic on the air this week, luckily there's video for you to watch! Yay...
If you're thinking about getting your flu shot, Brain wrote an blog clearing up some common misconceptions about it. You can check that out HERE.
