the leaves on the trees...

...are falling down, falling down, falling down...

the leaves on the trees are falling down

and Arafel is getting sniffly..

Yes, friends and neighbors, it's that time of year again that allergy sufferers love, the time of elevated pollen and leaf mold counts. That familiar itch in the deep of my chest is starting up again and I'm doing a very good imitation of a barking seal. How pleasant.

Off to the health center soon enough for another lecture about dealing with allergies (yes, yes, I know, shut up, I used to get shots and steroids and Decadron so please just write me my Allegra and Nasonex prescriptions and we'll stop wasting each other's time.)

I love fall - the cooler weather, getting out the sweaters, wearing clunky boots again, getting out the duster coat - but the peripherals really aren't much fun. :P

Fall? ha! It seems we jumped from summer to winter here. @_X

But, Autumn is indeed my favorite season--hopefully it will show up soon. :)

Yeah, I was watching all you Packer Backers on Monday night football (thank you GB for whomping the Redskins!) and they said it was 46 degrees at the game. Not too bad, as football weather goes, but still feels unseasonable.

Yeah, the Packers did give the Redkins a bit of a spanking... 37 to 0!!!!! *big grin*

Awwwwww.... hope you don't get the allergies too bad. (I hate the whole nose thing... it annoys me! Raaargh! *lol*)

Fall is my favorite time of year also. Warm (though not hot) days and cool nights. Good stuff. And I don't even have to put up with allergies. :)

Lucky you. :P I like fall second best to summer. Spring is the most miserable time for me. Winter has the cold but at least the crickets and the birdies aren't singing outside the window at 5 AM keeping me awake. :)

It's off to the clinic tonight. We have guests coming for the weekend and the last thing I need is a raging sinus infection. Joy.

Hope you'll be able to dodge it.

I didn't know you had mould allergy and that it hits in the fall. That doesn't sound like much fun.
