Allergies are FUN.

I can't stop itching my eyeball. It's red and swollen and....itchy. I've been sneezing on repeat for a solid hour and I sniff about every .45 seconds.

The culprit?


I may or may not be allergic to cats. I don't know, maybe I am? Growing up we always had cats and they always triggered my itchy eyes and sneezy nose, but I just assumed they did that to everyone. Don't they? Maybe the people who feel they are not allergic to cats, haven't stuffed their faces in the underbelly of a furry kitty long enough.

I'm telling you, it's worth it.

So I guess that's another factoid about me, I am allergic to cats. Thrilling.

Another factoid? I have had "We Build This City" stuck in my head for about....a year or so. I can't even tell you the last time I actually heard this song, but every so often I start singing it and it always surprises me. I never see it coming. Before that it was "What's Love Got to do with It" (I totally have no idea what get's capitalized in that title) which was in my head for like two years or something crazy. Is having a song stuck in your head that long even possible? I don't know but that's the only way I can explain it.

At least the song is BAD ASS. Just like the video.




***Update: I'm thinking that by listening to this song, and laughing very hard at the video, I will unstick it from my head. Which almost makes me a little sad.

Dude, I'm SUPER allergic to cats. In high school, all my friends had cats and if they so much as PICKED UP their cat before they went to school, I would have a stuffy+runny nose, red eyes, and be sneezing at least until lunch.

If I see a cat on the street, I have to pull my shirt over my nose and run.

Bex I'm so sad for you! But I'm guessing you don't like cats anyways? I think I would literally have to bleed from the eyeballs in order to stop myself from petting my cat.

Having seven cats and what I believe to be allergies to cats, I hear ya. Thank the Heavens for Zyrtec D and a lot of denial.
