Allergies

I hate allergies.  I went through a solid six week phase where I basically couldn't breathe, smell, or function correctly.  Then, for about a month to maybe a month and a half I miraculously got better.  I was so happy too!  I didn't have to deal with itchy eyes, sore glands, or stuffed up sinuses.  I could smell things again!  However, something in the last week brought me and my old friend back together again.  So now, not only do I have the common side effects, I have no voice.  If anyone heard me right now, they would either laugh at me or not know who I was.  This always happens at the most inopportune moments too.  I have three (yes, three!) midterms this week and I have Parents Weekend (technically it's called Homecoming Weekend but that seems too much of a high school term).  I'm honestly thinking about getting some kind of surgery that will stop allergies forever (they could replace all the organs in my head, I wouldn't mind, or my lungs, or my tonsils).  So for now, I get to meander through my days missing a sensory organ.  It's pretty cool, let me tell you.

Excuse me Ms. Evans, are you saying that you cannot smell correctly around me? Do I feel your nose with boogers, mucus and other strange green goo? I am your friend last time I checked, just like your allergies...I am not sure that I like this comparison.
