Rant: Spring in Chicago

[jim]

Because of the [expletive] winter we now are having what they are calling a Polen vortex. Highest polen readings in 20 years. Fortunately polen only affects the weak, so I do not notice this.

I do that a lot, I can't even say the English word pronunciation any longer because it's close to the Spanish word. (Pro-noon)-(c-ah)-c-own. I can not say that in English any longer. It's bizarre.

Here is the story with these alergies in a nutshell. Shhhitty weather caused alergies for people that make them miserable when the weather does turn nice, but fortunately the weather has been so shhhitty this week than they haven't suffered so bad.

It's [expletive] snowing.

Our pollen was absolutely, 100%, the worst I've ever experienced in my life. A month or so ago, you couldn't keep that yellow stuff off your car other than by parking it in a garage. Literally after one night under an oak tree, it'd be a yellow car. Then, those little pollen thingies started falling like leaves. I had to sweep my deck on a daily basis to keep it clean. Even leaves falling isn't as bad as what these things were doing. And, of course, it causes allergies for some people. Absolutely terrible. At least it meant warmer wether was coming though....so there's that.

Pretty nice in St. Louis this weekend. Friday was chilly but nothing like the ridiculous stuff I left.
