Onam,Rabies Vaccination and the goddamn cats

                                                       


Onam was good(Even though my mind was not completely into it due to "certain reasons").But hey ....anyday at home is a good day.It rained all day & night.This is not god's own country anymore.It's rains own country !

Now lemme give you some free advice !
RULE #1 : NEVER try to save CATS ! 

Being the superhero I am,and  after  being inspired by Batman,Ra One,Salman Khan and Anna Hazare... I was trying to save couple of them kittens from drowning in the rain yesterday.And guess what happened ?One lil rat bit me .Err I mean the lil cat who was a rat bit me :) .That vampire sank his fank like microscopic teeth into my finger.Blood!!!!!!!!!  Dizziness,Fear ...THUD !

Now.. since these cats are not vaccinated and they roam around a lot, I had to take "expert" opinion and go take Rabies shots starting today.

By the book,you have to take injection on  the 0,3,7,28  days after exposure.You also have to get vaccinated immediately after the bite.I was going through articles on internet about Rabies so that I have a better understanding of  what it can do to me.Once the virus kicks in and you don't get vaccinated,it can be fatal.It affects the central nervous system ,may put you into a coma and cause death.Thats not the way I want to die.Hell no! Ok ...Maybe I can die of Rabies while free diving from a plane into an ocean full of sharks  and mermaids.... or something cool like that !

So.. I end up going to the hospital in the morning.We know some POWERFUL people there.So no waiting in the queue.In minutes,I am escorted in...and am breifed by the Chubby Nurse Auntie  wearing a mask (felt as if I was being quaratined after a zombie virus outbreak  like in the movies).

Soon after , I am injected on both my arms.The nurse obviously does not care about  my feelings.She had a hannibal lectar like calmness while plunging the needle repeatedly into me.Being the macho man that I am ...I did not even flinch ....Kids stuff eh  ! Thankfully ..this time.... unlike last time....my dad did not tell the nurse that-
" He is scared of injections".

Before leaving,I was told that I need to come and get stabbed once every 3 days for another week.Can it get any better? Also I was told not to erase it ? eh ? erase ?
I looked on my arm and found  the needle marks and slight swelling there.Now as usual, I forget to ask them what does this 'erasing' mean ? So I assume that she means I shoudn't touch or rub the injected spot.So I roll up both my sleeves and flaunt my non existent SALMAN KHAN   biceps and  walk out in slow motion.

Anyways, my research work  regarding the ordeal helped me get path breaking information .While browsing through terabytes of data on 'Yahoo Answers' for  Rabies related queries,I saw a question from an obviously bright ,young man which went like this -      "Does Masturbation cause blindness? " .
