Allergies schmallergies
Using one's blog to whine is something I don't like to do because it seems like a cheap way to use the broadbandwaves (the internet's version of airwaves, I assume) but it's somewhat satisfying to let loose a little and yet not upset anyone within my immediate vicinity. This year I am among the ranks of people socked in the head by flowering trees. My eyes, nose and throat are raw after almost two weeks of itching and otherwise reacting to the gorgeous but apparently sadistic beauty of the white and pink lovelies. I've tried Dimetap, Claritin and Triaminic so far, all of which mollify itchiness a little but had minimal effect on drippy eyes or coughing. Since there may be a karma component to this (universe conspiracy theorist that I am) I sure wish I could figure out how to go to all my friends and acquaintances who, over the years, said they were suffering from allergies but of whom I thought various things like "oh for goodness sake" and "allergies schmallergies". I loudly apologize to them all.
