The husband and I both got hammered by allergies this past week. Dunno what’s in bloom, but whatever it is hit us hard. Finally we got smart and picked up an OTC remedy and now I don’t feel like my head is full of cotton and I can actually think and focus. Amazing.
Another sign of changing seasons, the hyperactive spiders are starting to show up again. I’m not sure what they’re called, but there are these manic arachnids that pop up for about 6 weeks at the end of summer to early fall and put webs EVERYWHERE. I mean, they’ll span Deception Pass.
This gets tricky for hikers, because you have to carry something to sweep the webs out of your way, and then when you turn around to head back down the trail the webs are already rebuilt. Somebody can be five minutes ahead of you on the trail and they’ll get rebuilt. These spiders are on crack or something, I’ve never seen anything like it.
So, sneezing, manic spiders, other than that it’s business as usual. I read The Rocky Road to Romance and laughed a lot and I’m writing up my RTB column for tomorrow. A little last minute, but I had the head full of cotton slowing me down.
