Strange times

[kitmerlot_1213]

I've had some strange times these last couple of weeks.



Saw the musical Catch Me If You Can on Broadway and it was awesome!  It was like a good old fashioned musical from the 1930's with lots of singing, dancing and costume changes.  I predict the show and the stars winning many Tony Awards.

But then on the way back home, I had the worst case of motion sickness and I need to ask--I'm 38 years old--how can I still get car sick??!!

Then, a couple of days after that, I had the allergy attack from hell--I actually took a day off work and just slept the day away-- apparently this is the worst pollen season ever.  I never had allergies as a child, developed them as an adult,  so I'm still learning how to deal with them but I wonder if I should go to the doctor and get an Official Diagnosis  i.e. I have an allergy to Maple trees.

So all in all, lots of strange medical stuff that I feel I'm too old to be suffering from but apparently my body feels differently :):)


ETA:  Overall I am feeling better, but man, when it rains, it pours!

I'm sitting here waiting for my hay fever to kick in any day now... grass pollen is my big problem :(

And I don't get motion sickness (not so far, anyway, touch wood!) but I did have the most weird thing a couple of years ago - we'd been sailing, and when we went ashore to do some shopping I started feeling really ill, thought I was coming down with the sickness bug that the kids had had... got back on the boat, suddenly felt ravenous, ate a huge meal of greasy fish and chips and never looked back. It turns out I was land sick, which was a very strange thing!

Glad to hear you're feeling better, anyway :)

Yikes, I hope the hay fever doesn't hit you too hard this year.

And I've never heard of "Land sickness" before--do you mind my asking you if you ever had another attack of it or was it just a one time thing?

It's definitely an odd thing, you expect seasickness but not the opposite!

I'd never had it before, and so far I've never had it again - I'm quite used to the whole sea-legs thing where dry land isn't exactly solid for a day or two after being at sea (or in my case even after an airplane flight of more than 5 hours), but actually getting queasy because the floor isn't going up and down is a very odd thing! I'd always thought it was an old wives tale until I experienced it for myself.
