I didn’t know poison ivy was an allergy, I thought it affected everyone.
Or do you mean it’s even worse if you’re allergic?

 

[Apisto42]

It's an allergen. That's why you can take Benadryl to alleviate the symptoms.

Shopping!!!!

*zoom*

 

[Endless_Night]

French food, Lush, Lululemon, cute little salt cellars, and an obscene amount of money on organic, sustainable, bedding.

I am tired.

And it's sort of raining.

So much for any kind of work today.

There are times when I wonder if I was born to slack.

It's an allergen. That's why you can take Benadryl to alleviate the symptoms.

It's one of those sensitized allergens. No-one is born allergic, but once sensitized you're likely to react to some degree. The degree may go up and down, dependent on immunity and other things.

No little blisters have appeared, so I consider I've won this round.

 

[Endless_Night]

Grrrr. People. Who do things they know annoy you -

That they know annoy you, because you've told them they annoy you. Repeatedly.

- that act aggrieved when you express irritation at them doing something they know annoys you.

Give me patience.

Also, all this time I thought dewdrops -

as in, "Your eyes are like dewdrops," -

were some type of flower.

Nope. They are, in fact, drops of dew. I am at a loss to understand why that is consider romantic. *confused icon*

 

[Wand3rlust]

Eyes are like dewdrops" is a poetic metaphor describing eyes that are sparkling, clear, and moist, often evoking feelings of innocence, freshness, and light. This phrase is used to portray a, glistening, , crystalline, or, tear-filled, look, frequently in romantic or appreciative contexts,

[Endless_Night]

I could this, too, on the Dewdrop archetype.

I still don't get it on any type of visceral level.

Maybe I'm feeling a little shopworn.

For various reasons I've set myself the goal of three, minimum, get aways or vacations.

It's nosing up on the middle of March.

*crickets*

I have vague plans for a glamping trip and a weeklong wander to . . . some other state.

That's it.

I enjoy travel but I so hate planning. Or, maybe less the planning than the coordinating. *thunk*

 

[Endless_Night]

On a more positive note, there are treehouses and geodesic domes for glamping options.

Go to DC in early July. It’ll be cheap and not many people. You’ll love it.

Really? I've never been to DC. Why will I love it?

 

[Apisto42]

Really? I've never been to DC. Why will I love it?

DC will be insane this July 4th. It’s always crowded but this is 250 years since the declaration of independence.

Never ever go to DC for July 4th unless you love crowds of people and sweltering humidity and heat.

Oh. A joke.

You know I am sense of humor limited!

 

[Endless_Night]

Oof. Long week.

Also, why do wasp stings hurt like the devil, then quit hurting, then a few days later inflame like mad.

It's most annoying.

I've been reading on oxygen.

All my previous literature exposure linked the large size of dinosaurs and such due to high oxygen periods and avian like respiration that allowed for higher oxygen production. There is a school of thought that the size helped decrease the oxygen level in tissues, to help limit damage from ROS (like disease and aging).

Interesting.

 

[hotwords229_A]

I, too, was reading about the dinosaurs recently.
