I am continually baffled as to why my body would decide that working hard towards auto-asphyxiation would be preferable to allowing even the slightest bit of pollen into my airways.

In other news, decongestant works perfectly, but apparently only on one nostril at a time.

...Album I bought: Horses by Patti Smith. So, ok, I may be discovering Patti Smith a little late. Er, something like 35 years late, but if I could have been listening to this album from the age of -11 I totally would have. It's pretty wow. I don't think I even need to say much about it. Godmother of punk, etc etc. Also, I think I need to have a bit ( Read more... )
