Er. Yesterday was just a big tangle of bad, for no good reason at all that I could determine. Today has real potential, except for the sneezing thing. I was sneezing convulsively (of course. Does anybody ever sneeze non-convulsively?) before I even got out of bed this morning.

I've learned from previous visits to Sneeze All The Fucking Time Land that once I start sneezing, Claritin is powerless to help me. Likewise Sudafed, even the fake Sudafed (pseudopseudoephedrine?), even though the latter does not make me hopped up like the former. The only thing for it is Benadryl, so Benadryl first thing in the morning it was. Now I'm enjoying that packed-in-cotton feeling and fighting falling asleep in my chair, but hey, at least I'm not sneezing, right?

For bonus points, they've installed new carpeting in some areas of the office, so there are a lot of fibers and dustballs to contend with as well. :( The carpet looks good, though.

I think that's true -- on the last Really Bad Sneezing Day, we were having dinner at Tanner's, and they were doing a promo for Crown Royal. Crown is not usually on my to-drink list, but they were handing out Crown & Cokes, so I had one, and did not sneeze again for like unto two hours. Unfortunately, I think I would have a hard time explaning to my boss that I needed the whiskey at the office. :(

Even considering your boss? Just keep it away from the consumers, yo.
