A reason to move?
For the past month I’ve had a stuffy nose and swollen left eye. It doesn’t bother me too much— I can still see my computer screen and the swelling is not that noticeable— but I went to get it checked out by my eye doctor for reassurance.
I’ve never had allergies before, so I was pretty surprised when she told me that there’s something in the San Francisco air that I’m allergic to. I asked her if I moved to some place else, say, Paris or NY, would I be cured? And she said maybe! It depends on what’s there. I understood this to mean yes.
Lately I’ve been trying to think of what I’m exposed to on a daily basis here, that I was not in Los Angeles:
1. Clean air
2. Fog
3. California Cuisine
4. Walking long distances (i.e. two blocks or more)
5. Homeless people
I’m going to have an allergy test done in two months so we’ll see if my guesses are correct.
nice, maybe u are allergic to protests as well
WOW! i want to be exposed to California Cuisine.
I hope your allergy mystery gets cleared up soon. Thanks for showing us that food place, Mindy! It was sooo good. I hope to see you again. =)
You walked a lot in LA. Don’t forget about our favorite homeless person in Westwood who didn’t want to eat the food we offered to him.
i want to move to nyc now too.
Your writing always puts a smile on my face, mindy.
Hey, I met you at Lake Anza. I play the Ukulele and don’t swim.
