Would you rather...

So, I think next year I will opt for getting a flu shot. I have a phobia of getting a shot (not of needles) and I avoid getting a shot at all costs if I can. So when the news said that this year's flu would be really bad, I shrugged my shoulders and said, "It can't be worse than a shot."

In November I went to the hospital because I was vomiting and having diarea so bad, I dehydrated in about six hours. Sunday night I awoke yet again to that terrifying feeling that you have to throw up and you start to calculate the distance to the bathroom knowing the whole time... your not going to make it. I didn't have to go to the emergency room this time, but in retrospect I think I would have rather had the shot.

Now I have to figure out how to clean the wall of my hallway which resembles the house in the Exorcist now. Any tips?
