3. My sister-in-law swears by Claritin.
I remember how her eyes and nose would be all red, until she started using Claritin. You'd never know that she has allergies now.

4. Yeah. I was thinking I would get some after work today.
I wasn't expecting such an early on rush of allergies...It usually doesn't feel like this until April...

5. Want to hear something really weird?
Here, in Central VA, the area is kind of known as the allergy capital of the world. The oak trees put out this greenish/yellow pollen that coats everything and is really hard to get off cars and such. Has been known to scratch the paint on cars.

Well, it's not so much the histamine reaction here in this house, as it is the heaviness from breathing all that crap, so once it starts, we turn on the A/C.

In 2004, we turned the attic into an office for me and one for Mr. We had the windows opened and noticed that the pollen was so heavy, that the third floor was completely devoid of pollen.

Imagine all that crap going into your lungs? :scared:

6. I know
I find the green sticky stuff on my car all the time. Its the reason I NEVER open my windows anymore. The older I get, the more I seem to suffer from allergies...
