Allergy season has been rough this year.The first two weeks the trees were blooming, I was a wreck. Worse than a cold or the flu, not just because of the inability to breathe and the constant itchiness but because of the idea that when you have allergies, you aren’t really “sick”–that idea that maybe you should get up and get more done because you don’t have a fever and you aren’t contagious and get over it already.

Pfft.

Anyhow, for my fellow allergy sufferers, I cannot offer you any miracle cures but I can offer you a little laughter, which I hear is the best medicine, and the assurance that spring cannot last forever.
