1. I got my Covid-19 booster shot on Saturday. The overall effect has been much more similar to my first shot than my second -- no fever or general flu-like malaise -- but after the initial muscle soreness in my left shoulder wore off, I seem to have developed some joint soreness and possibly a slightly sore/swollen lymph node? Or then again, maybe it's just some pre-existing soreness in my left hand interacting oddly with vaccine side-effects. I dunno, bodies are weird. Mostly I am taking ibuprofen and trying to find resting positions that don't make my shoulder, elbow, and forearm/wrist burn. :/

2. I had my 6-month dental checkup this morning. My gums are doing better than last time and my fillings seem to be in good repair, which is nice. I have been advised to purchase a water flosser to aid with general gum health, so that has gone onto my to-do list. I should also get a call from my pharmacy in the next day or two once my new prescription fluoride toothpaste arrives. Hopefully this one will be mint flavor instead of the weird fruity bubblegum flavor I have been suffering through since my last dental checkup!
