    My allergy spells. I was perfectly fine yesterday until I wasn't lol. Went to Aldi because I needed a few things and before I left I started sneezing. Then my eyes started getting watery. More sneezing. Then after I got in my car, I had a full blown sneezing spell 😩 I was sneezing for 4 hours. I don't understand why I go from zero to 100( actually, I'm not surprised 😂) took 2 allergy pills and I went to bed. Made me miss my gym workout 😡

    Interesting enough the AQ was *kitten* here yesterday and the last time I had an allergy attack was 3 weeks ago when we had really horrible AQ cause of the fires. I'm just blaming that and my after covid immune system.

    Do I sound irked enough? Lol

    Yeah I’ve been trying to work on my cardiovascular health recently and it has been difficult because of the air quality and I just haven’t had the same breath since Covid. TBH it’s never been great but this wheezing is ridiculous

    Have you considered asking about using an inhaler?

    I have one coworker who just refuses to acknowledge that he has asthma. He coughs every day and you. can. just. hear. it.

    Trust me. I'm a doctor (except I'm not, I just have asthma)

    It used to bother me when shaking hands if somebody tried to do the dominant hand on top thing. Like my boy, I will *kitten* you up.

    Then it bothered me when people would intentionally do the palm up hand on the bottom thing. Because ew. I did not agree to top you.

    & now I just think touching is gross

    I must be leading a sheltered life because I have never run into either one of these hand-shaking types. The worst for me is some guy who thinks he has to crush my hand when shaking it. Who is he impressing? Not me with my newly broken hand - that's for sure

    Really? I have had several types of handshakers in addition to the dominant and submissive ones.

    When I was younger the most common type were men who didn’t feel comfortable shaking a woman’s hand and they would just grab my fingertips.

    Another type of would clasp my hand between two of theirs in a very warm kind of greeting which wasn’t always terrible

    And there are women who are usually just happy to be treated professionally and they just shake like a normal person

    And of course they are the hand crushers

    And occasionally an ordinary guy who knows how to shake

    No I’m going to suck it up and actually go to a medical health provider because I give good face.

    Thank you for the push because I thought I was just going for general Adulting purposes but now I have incentive.
