Amber & Leaf Mold

Today is a landmark in my DC experience: the day of the most allergic symptoms ever. I have puffy, gooey eyes, a stuffy nose, a tickly throat, and my ears are so blocked off that I can hear myself breathing inside my head-- not that I can really breathe very well.

The culprit is leaf mold. The lack of trees in NYC is suddenly a health benefit.

I'm just not a nature girl, like Ms. Tiggy Winkle.
