Dear So and So

Odd - Zyrtec never did a thing for me but knock me out. I had to cut them in half. Never had any problem with Clariton - real or generic.

Zyrtec knocked me on my butt, even if I took it at night I'd have a hangover the next day. Claritin and Allegra didn't work either. Then I got allergy tested -- I am not allergic to anything. I have non-allergic rhinitis -- allergies without the allergies. Swell.

Have you tried a challenge diet? Testing for food allergies is notoriously unreliable - although testing tends more toward false positives than false negatives, it surely couldn't hurt to try a challenge diet.

DBF:

You really couldn't call tonight? Really? Or answer the phone?

Harumph.

Zyrtec doesn't make me drowsy, but then, it doesn't look like I'm particularly susceptible to the anti-histamine drowsiness, since Benadryl doesn't really do anything in that regard either. Claratin doesn't touch my allergy symptoms, but it doesn't make me drowsy. Maybe I should try Allegra.

Dear weather,
Please make up your mind. Rain, or don't. Seriously. And now you want thunderstorms tomorrow? I was going to ride tomorrow!

Dear cable company,
You've had my order for two weeks. I called you to correct the payment information two days after placed the order. What the heck are you doing?

Dear self,
Get off TE and go look up recipes and directions so you can go to the grocery store and get home before it rains.

Dear cat who threw up in my slippers at 4:30 this morning:

If you keep that up, I'm not only throwing out all of my plants, I'm shaving all of your fur off as well.

You're awfully lucky I threw you off the bed before you threw up on ME.

Yours truly,
hairball foot.

Dear jessmarimba,

I feel your pain. My cat throws up at a rate of once every couple of days. Sometimes he throws up twice a day if I'm lucky. All because he'll maul anyone who attempts to groom him. I think shaving might not be the worst idea...

Dear friend from high school,

thank you for always being the person who offers a solid, compassionate, steadying silence when I lose my head over life. A lot of times, that's exactly what's needed. I'm thankful you're in my life and I'm thankful you are willing to be that person. Thank you.
