Hurricanes Lounge XXIX: The "Hot and Cold" edition

[Negan4Coach]

I'm afraid to google what kids today think of their bodies being possessed by ancient entities and then used for sex purposes in this beloved 80's classic.

They would be obsessed with the fact that Zuul did not obtain proper consent before mounting Sigorney Weaver.

 

[Ahoy there]

I take Claratin daily, as does my wife, as does our daughter (and has since she was 2.) Only thing that stopped the toddler ear infections. Even tubes were only a temporary solution.

This year's allergies are so bad my wife went to get tested for the flu yesterday. They told her to basically take a bunch of different things to try and overcome the allergies this year. It's worse than I ever remember in NC.

Strange how differently it affects everyone. I have battled severe allergies my whole life - even weekly shots as a kid. I've been waiting for the pollen to start this year. Hasn't impacted me a bit yet. Maybe it's just the pine that really kicks my ass... my Bradford's are done blooming so I know it's started. When the cars are all yellow I'll be in misery I'm sure.

Hope the rain this evening brings some relief to your family.

 

[HisIceness]

My car is covered in that yellow shit known as "pollen".

 

[Cardiac Jerks]

It snowed here today.

 

[Socks]

Flonase my fellow allergy suffering friends. I swear by the stuff.

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

Just had allergies kick in a year or two ago. Never suffered from them until now. After several trips to the ENT I now know what everyone else suffers from.

Second Flonase. Good stuff.

The pollen is so thick on our driveway/street you can see tire tracks and footprints like there’s been a dusting of greenish yellow snow.

Don’t eat the yellow snow.

There's a chance of snow in Charlotte on Tuesday. In April.

 

[Lempo]

Don’t eat the yellow snow.

I honestly thought until very recently that Bobby Brown (Goes Down) is a Bloodhound Gang song.

It gets quite a plenty radio play on one of our rock channels.

Flonase my fellow allergy suffering friends. I swear by the stuff.

I have a prescription for it, don’t use it really much.

 

[Socks]

I have a prescription for it, don’t use it really much.

I haven’t had to for a while, my allergies have improved generally, but years ago when it was still prescription only I had a nasty sinus infection that was misdiagnosed and I was miserable for 2 or 3 months. Finally I saw a different doctor and they prescribed Flonase (and some meds) and I got better. I started using it for seasonal allergies as well and never looked back.

 

[Unsustainable]

It’s f***ing snowing in April

 

[HisIceness]

No snow in January or February but April 2nd? Gotta love Southern weather

 

[Socks]

No joke I was at Target this morning and people were talking about how much we were going to get. I was like it’s 43°. Let’s maybe take it down a notch or two.

 

[DaveG]

Yep, far too warm to stick but by god will people panic.

 

[HisIceness]

The snow has stopped. There are no survivors, except me.

I think @Socks and @Unsustainable also survived but cannot confirm.

@Unsustainable told me that having a kid means saying goodbye to sleep and money. Well, I don't know about the latter because I haven't had the time to analyze it but in my case I've recently slept like twice the amount I used to. Mainly because now I actually go to sleep in the evening.

The downside in this is that during this year I've maybe watched 7 periods of NHL hockey in total. Sigh.

Now when I'm thinking about it, it would be a lot easier if I were a Sabres fan, because that's pretty much the same amount of periods that they have actually shown up to play this year.

Lol, you are smart to go to bed early then.... I get up at 6am, and still can’t fall asleep after 10

Ours is almost a year and a half. I haven't slept well in almost a year and a half.

Now we're talking about another one. I'm still not sure how I feel about signing up for another couple of years of crappy sleep.

You don't sleep well now, wait until they are twenty and on spring break with their boyfriend.



You sleep fine.

 

[RodTheBawd]

Suckers. I slept on a separate floor for 9 months and let my wife handle those duties. Granted, it almost led to a nervous breakdown and divorce, but looking back, it was totally worth it.

We're expecting in August, can't wait for round 2!

Ha. We had twins so we decided we'd each get up with one of the twins during the night and for continuity, we'd stick with the same one. Thankfully, my twin started sleeping through the night after just 1.5 months. Her twin, took almost 6 months and even then would still be an early riser. To this day (they are in college now), their sleep habits are the basically the same when they are home from college. One can fall asleep anywhere and will sleep in, the other is up early every morning.
