Only took 5 minutes for Giraffe to save us from this mundane pointless thread: > **[Things that I'm upset about right now](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=318540)** > > In no particular order: Out in Santa Fe, my allergies were fine for most of the year. They got a little bad starting this month - a bit of sneezing, a bit eye irritation. Solution: I took Allegra and was fine. Then I got home to nice, humid,... THANK YOU! ---
