Life Imitates Arst

I got an Eastern European flu shot today. Afterwards the nurse asked if I wanted a booklet that described the possible side effects. Turns out it was only in Estonian, Russian, and Latvian. Oh well. By then the potent virus was already in my system.

The doctor's office is called "Sinu Arst" which means "Your Doctor" in Estonian. I got my shot at the arst, but not in the "arst". I had already been there to get my health insurance. I was kind of looking forward to seeing a new arst.

The jokes are endless.
