2009 was my 40th year on this planet. When I turned 40 in June it didn't bother me at all. Funny, on my 30th birthday I thought my life was over. On my 40th I just accepted the fact that I was now 10 years closer to my death date.
This was when I started thinking about how I would die and the EXACT moment that I was sure it would be of Swine Flu. Of all the shit that could kill me, all the risks I've taken in my life, the adventures I had been on ... my life would end with a disease named after a damn pig!
I went to the doctor for my annual physical. Along with the new grand adventure of getting my breasts smashed in a machine, and with the old adventure of jumping in the stirrups for that "Well Woman" check ... I had a new challenge to discuss with Old Doc Missy. "Do I or do I not get the H1N1 shot".
I live with a RN who says she thinks I should get it. I work in a field that places me at risk. I am getting ready to get on a airplane with 300 other people for 12 hours,breathing the sam air with them over and over again - to go to a Thailand and they won't even disclose how many people they have had come down with the Swine Flu.
I may get blown up in a plane by a terrorist. I may die if the plane crashes half way around the world. I might die in a Tusnami in Thailand.
But I will be DAMN if I die from Swine Flu!
