Raul Frogashrew and pneumococcal pneumonia vaccination

I've been meaning to post this for a while. The other night I rediscovered a bean bag frog given to me years ago by my brother. He did that because I had such a delightful time hiding his bean bag frog in his wrist supports he uses to help prevent his RSI getting worse. I found it very amusing. I must have been tired.

I looked at Spawn and asked what to name the frog. Mind you, we don't use profanity, or profanity proxies around her. We're reading Redwall books together, so shrew was going in there. Raul was the frog's name from years back. She dubbed him Raul Frogashrew Friggin'. I think she was just playing with sounds for that last name, but it made me laugh pretty hard, so she likes it, even if she doesn't know why I was laughing.



Bubbles and I also went ahead and got pneumococcal pneumonia vaccines. I understand they're good for something like 10 years. Seasonal flu vaccines, which we normally get yearly, aren't available due to the H1N1 panic going on (people are getting any vaccine they can that says "flu." We figured although any flu is very uncomfortable, most people who die from them die from secondary infections, especially pneumonia, so this gives us some layer of protection, and long-term protection, too.
