I’m not allergic to many things. Usually it’ll be dust that gets to me, but there’s this one sucker called the bottlebrush tree that I’ve been allergic to since I touched it back when I was 4. Most of you have probably seen it lining sidewalks. I avoid them like it’s the bubonic plague.
This is the culprit…
If I touch it I’ll get a rash all over my hands, if I breathe in the pollen I’ll develop an ongoing headache for days, have a runny nose, maybe a fever, and the WORST, blurred vision. My vision will be blurry for around 4-5 days.
So I've been sort of blind. I took my hardcore allergy medication, which got rid of the congestion, but the doctor says I can't do anything about the blurriness. I've been wearing my mom's reading glasses when I have to read something, which helps a little, but makes me dizzy after a while. I'm wearing them right now and they make me look nerdy.
Yesterday I was driving like 5 miles an hour today b/c I didn’t have anyone to drive me. And I’ve been typing ultra huge too b/c I can’t read the dialogue in AIM….
My mom had to drive me to work today. Haha
Kinda scary isn’t it? It’s weird but I think I’m used to getting this by now.
*Sigh*
