I love the smell of an early Spring, but fuck me is it setting off my hayfever.
Fuck you Nose. You have betrayed me for the last time.
Oooooh the hayfever! That's a thing I don't miss about Melbourne. I never had hayfever before moving to Melbourne. And about 24 hours after moving to Perth, I noticed I was breathing just fine without Clarytine and nasal spray. I get minor hayfever here now, but nothing like what I had in Melbourne.
I was hit pretty bad (prescribed Ventalin, even) by the Pollenpocalypse that killed 8 people only a month before I left Melbourne. It was so bad that I physically couldn't mow my own lawn, I needed to pay someone.
If hayfever gets too bad, have a holiday out of Victoria. You don't have to come all the way to Perth, Queensland will probably give you relief.
