AH-CHOO!

Today I learned that I have allergies.

How can this happen? Well, I'm figuring this all out so I can tell you:
  • I'm really just hypersensitive to whatever crap happens to be hanging out in the air. It's not like it's really hurting me (like how peanuts can really hurt people who are allergic to peanuts). It's just bothersome sneezing and runny nose fun.
  • I've heard (and cannot find any backup to this on Wikipedia just yet) that I can outgrow my allergies. I love that idea, and I'm hopeful that I'll toughen up some and stop being bothered by this.
  • I can take some pretty remarkable medicines to help me out. I promised CVS that I wouldn't make meth out of Claritin D and soon I should be "symptom free" according to B who is hypersensitive to environmental allergens sometimes. That's pretty amazing.
Those are my allergy facts, or allergy bits of possibly factual information. Gesundheit!
