when i was growing up
i thought only nerds had allergy attacks
like Felix from the odd couple
allergies where for the weak, annoying and neurotic..
as i got older it never occurred to me
that always having a tissue in my pocket, always needing one
meant that yes
i actually had allergies
it also never occurred to me that the two huge fat balls of fur that have slept with me for the past 17 years might be oh setting off a cat allergy
september 11th left sent my allergies into
a whole other stratosphere and i went on a two year long homoepathic cleanse
to try to get back to my pre 911
allergy state
these days
i pop a Claritin a few days a week
and count myself lucky that its not worse
but then you get a day
thats full of pollen
dust
cat dander
and stress
and im popping more pills then
Karen on WILL and GRACE
one things for sure
allergies are not for wimps
cause only the strong can really grativate thru all of life's hassles
while stoned on allergy pills, angry from a sinus headache,weasing from an asthma attack and tired from a sleepless night of blowing the shnoz
ive heard reports that the allergens in the air are at an all time record high
and some folks are linking it to global warming
pollution
ENRON
whatever
all i know is
that im sick of it
how are you feeling?
