allergies

apparently, i now have allergies. i've never had allergies before, but if this is what it's going to be like every year forever, then this will not be fun. i don't know if it makes it any better that it's things like these flowers that cause these ridiculous symptoms. i guess it's good that i don't have some crazy virus, but i do not like the idea of this being an annual, or even more than annual occurrence. sigh...
