Allergies: anyone else having problems right now?

maybe it's just me b/c of lingering effects from the near apratment fire at my neighbor's last week, but I swear it's gotten worse the last few days, and my eyes are driving me crazy with scratchiness! aaah, I've gone thru almost a whole box of Kleenes today, and I know it's not a cold, the tickly, prickly allergy feeling is definitely there. maybe it was just something I touched, maybe while at my mom's, it shouldn't be allergy season now, should it?? I'll take allergies over the flu anyday, but it's making my contacts a bitch to wear and I can't lie down to sleep without getting up 5x tp blow my nose.

just being whiny, life could be much worse.

2. not yet, but I will soon, because the Hill Country Cedar pollen

will be here soon. It is horrible.

I usually get a slam dunk sinusitis from it and one year had pneumonia; it just snuck in on me. In bed for a week.

3. Kleenex sucks

I learned that right after bush stole another election. I said, "Good grief, this country can't even make decent a tissue with which to sob one's eyes out over the loss of democracy."

Kleenex is to handkerchief as CNN is to news.

Sorry about your allergies. Mine were bad a couple weeks ago; better now.

At my folk's house, and have run out of Allegra. Yes - it does seem like a strange time to be experiencing severe allergies!

12. lol! that must be it! that big pile of deadwood I must be deathly allergic

to! that damn * timber, is there an antidote for that? sheesh, you'd think we'd have built up a resistance by now with all the constant exposure to the noxious one, but I guess this is a new strain. creepy.

6. Yeah, I am, and was very surprised

I normally don't have allergy problems this time of year.

8. interesting, I'm glad I asked, I thought it was just me. what the heck is

in the air? probably related to global warming I bet. this is very weird timing, and we are near freezing point now in Seattle.
