See, my evil side could take over and I could easily say "HA! HA! See, I don't have allergies and you do, so you have to suffer!" but I'm not really like that. So, I truly am sorry. I know I hate it when I get the sniffles, and I imagine that allergies are probably worse, as they're chronic and, uh, predictable.

... Maybe some Allegra? I'm sorry you have to live in this tree-and-flower-filled valley, plus all the crops and orchards and everything.. it's wonderful for a non-allergic person such as myself, but I feel sorry for those of you with allergies that live here. Hope they, uh, die down or whatever allergies do :-)
