Curse You Hayfever!!

Spring is here, the rain is stopping and the outside world is warming up again it's the perfect time to go out and enjoy the rare good weather. Or is it.

Spring is in the air and so is the bloody pollen again (excuse my mild language, I'm usually very well spoken honestly) and I happen to have hayfever. And pretty severe hayfever as well so even medicated I have yet another summer of wheezing, sneezing, sniffing rubbing my itchy eyes until they go red and swell up (actually not so much these days - I learnt to ignore that particular unbearable itch in school). So after spending winter getting cold, wet and occasionally falling over on ice (fortunately I am a human cushion and injury does not happen easily) I get to enjoy summer mostly indoors with the windows closed. Again. Joy. And of course there's the coughing. Did I mention the coughing? I get that pretty much through the summer with my Hayfever too. So much fun.

I apologize for complaining (I wouldn't usually) but I'm sure a few of you are familiar with how intensely irritating this particular allergy is. And it's already started this year again.

Anyway, on the bright side I have just finished a full week off work (that's 5 whole days ladies and gentlemen) so I've actually had time to watch some films, read some books and even go to the cinema to see Watchmen - which was excellent by the way. My brother was also home from uni for the week eating only these peculiar thing called vegetables - their kinda like meat but crunchy and with a horrible aftertaste. It's always good to have my brother home (and a nice change for him to visit me and not the other way around) but we won't speak of this here lest his ego grows to enormous proportions. We wouldn't want to get stuck in doorways with his massive head or anything (although...) but it's worth mentioning him just to provoke a reaction and see if he reads my journal entries.

That's pretty much it for now, I'd like to say I've run out of interesting things to say but let's face it - I didn't have anything interesting to say in the first place.

yeah, if only someone would come up with a diabolic scheme to wipe out all pollen in the universe. Millions of peoples would enjoy summer so much more - I think the end of most plant and animal life as we know it is a small price to pay.

Incidently I'm not going to comment about anything you have written in this journal entry.. so there! =P

Eat honey from local bees. Has to be local to where you are (and you'd have to do it again if you moved away) and preferably organic. This can really help it (your body wont feel the need to react so badly to the pollen once its had it in a form it can handle). Its worked for me. Staying away from places with heavy traffic also helps.

You're the first person I've heard say that the Watchmen was excellent. But I have a feeling people have been slagging it off for the sake of it as usual ;P
:iconstuntedsanity:
Honey has been suggested to me before but led to an interesting discovery - I can't stand the stuff. Even diluted or mixed with other ingredients it just tastes foul.
Thankyou for the suggestion though, by reputation it's quite effective.

Watchmen is not without it's flaws (the pacing occasionally drags a little and it's very long) but overall it's an exceptionally good film. I enjoyed every perfectly cast and faithfully plotted minute of it.
