    Default pollen

    i hate it. it makes my eyes water and get itchy, it ruins my clothes, it makes me sneeze, general misery.
    the only thing i hate more is trig and chemistry. and thats only because you cant fail at pollen.

    right now the pollen count in Atlanta is around 5,000. that is ridiculously high.

    I like when the pollen in early spring turns my windshield a nice hue of green. Sweetens the scent of the air as well. I am fortunate though, I've never suffered from any allergies.

    Dust mites thrive in matresses too...they like the dead skill flakes! Sometimes it keeps me awake thinking about it...

    It can get bad here in VA, but I fondly remember the pollenfall in the ATL. Everything coated with a half inch of yellow-green dust.

    Try being allergic to dust... makes cleaning an absolute *****!

    My sister moved out recently and I moved into her room while I'm home from university, and the place was an utter mess and needed a good amount of TLC and cleaning... I've never been so ill from my dust allergy before that. >.<

    Word. At least when you have Hayfever you can just go inside. Dust allergies are worse :(

    Did you know that you're not allergic to dust per se; or even dust mites. Rather, we are allergic to the faeces of dust mites.
