Living that fully vaccinated life

Have now had both vaccination shots, and I can get the free krispy kreme donut whenever I next go to krispy kreme (so probably never lol). Putting my reactions here for posterity.
Company: Moderna
Shot 1: 4-5 hours after the shot my arm started to get sore. It was pretty painful if I moved my arm but if it was in a stationary position I couldn't feel it. The soreness lasted about 48 hours. No other symptoms from me.
Shot 2: After the shot, took tylenol every 6 hours. Drank a lot of water both before and after injection. After injection went through about 3x as much water as I normally do, I was very thirsty.
About 12-13 hours post vaccination, woke up with fever and chills (took the shot in the afternoon so woke up in the wee hours). Felt generally terrible but fever was gone by about 10am. Muscle aches/headaches stuck around until around 8pm. Skin hypersensitivity lasted until I woke up the following morning (so probably 35-36 hours). Basically the day after injection felt like the tail end of a bad fever. By the start of day 2, I was fine except for some arm soreness at the injection point. I did have random headaches for the next 48 hours, but they were very off and on.
