which is odd because I don’t really have the whole allergy thing. I think being raised in the smog of the Los Angeles basin burned out all that nonsense. Anyway, I just can’t stop sneezing. I have exhausted all the old-wives tales and basic home remedies. I broke out the Neti Pot. Surely cleaning out the sinus cavity will work. Nope, next sneeze starts pouring blood. I put my head back and take off my sweatshirt so as to not get blood on it. Now I’ve got a “2 for” situation. Boo hoo. I try tilting my head back, pinching off the sinuses…doesn’t work. I put Kleenex in my nose to try to slow the bleeding? Yeah, that just gets red confetti…

It still hasn’t stopped (feel free to email your own home remedy) but it’s slowed a bit. I come back to sit down on the couch for a bit and can’t find my hoodie… 

The dog.. Mr “Separation-Anxiety Puppy… Mr ‘Has-to-go-everywhere-I-do’ and Mr “Interrupt Every Phone Call Because The World About Him” has stolen my hoodie and made a pallet for himself… He doesn’t even care… I can’t even go to the bathroom alone.. Maybe he doesn’t have a stomach for blood? Oh well, evidence of this to come.. in the meantime, if you have any ideas.. feel free.
