Just so everyone knows before you read this, this post is NOT about 42's ferret. Just sayin'. 8)

I was writing this really cool (to me :/) piece that I was really enjoying but then I realized I was completely changing the theme/basic-plotline of the story…AND I was in this really weird mood/zone and my writing was sounding really different (not in a bad way, just…different) and now I kind of lost the 'zone' and I don't know whether to continue it or it!!!  >:( :'( >:(

I was happy because my neighbor's apricot tree is blooming, but now it is snowing, so I hope it doesn't freeze and kill all the blossoms.

Thank you. Yes, her name was Charlie. She had a good long life, that's all that matters.

This doesn't apply to today, but yesterday I was far from happy. The weather got suddenly warmer, which normally makes me happy, but...this time my allergies came back full-force and I was pretty miserable. It sucked. I hate allergies...

This is why none of you will be a) having your kids use antibacterial soap, and b) preventing your kids from getting all muddy and putting nasty things in their mouths!

Well, if you never have kids in your life, then you won't have to worry about them getting allergies, will you?

I never had any allergies, though. The stupid things started afflicting me last summer when the humidity in Rexburg hit. It was terrible!...I even refused to think that I had allergies. I told my dad what my symptoms were and he's like "that sounds like allergies" and I'm like "but...I don't HAVE allergies."...and then I took my sister's allergy medicine and lo and behold, the symptoms went away!....

I would love to know why allergies develop as people get older.

I was fine until I moved to Portland, which is downwind of a LOT of grass seed farms.  Ever since, allergies every summer.  I thought living in the desert would help but I am dreadfully allergic to tamarisk, which lines the bank of the Colorado river and fills the air where I live. 
Should be better this year, we had two fires last year that cleared out quite a lot of the stuff.
Allergies this early in the year are awful.
Jade, I agree, no antibacterial soap in our house! And I can't keep my kids from putting yucky stuff in their mouths, they only come complain of the results afterward.

There is a theory that trying to keep kids very clean means they are not exposed to enough microbes when young and this causes them to develop allergies to things they would have otherwise developed natural tolerances/immunities to.

I'm not sure that any reliable evidence has been shown for this using controlled studies, though.
