Hit me like a ton of bricks two days ago. So if my posts are particularly rambling and muddy-thinking, that's why. Can't wait to see what my code looks like. 
Nettle tea for me! (I'm not a sudafed person, if I'm going to take something like that, it'll be the natural form of ephedra. The problem is I can't remember where my stash of it is, before it got banned here in the US. 
Also, no more dark chocolate for a while, as it creates a histamine response, and pretty much avoid anything with sugar in it (similar response), which I pretty much do anyways, unless it's a a piece of fruit. Or dark chocolate.

It never occurred to me to use allergies as a multi-purpose life excuse. 
"Excuse me sir. Do you know why you were speeding?" .... allergies?

Hey - allergies are nothing to sneeze at.

It works quite well with the SO. "Honey, can you cook dinner tonight? I'm suffering from allergies!"

Tis the season, at least here in FL.
Got it doubly bad as I picked up a nasty bug while on vacation. A sinus, bronchitis, intestinal thing that is still lingering a month later.

Intestinal thing? I kid you not, but I had some very lively yogurt (Trader Joe's) and it cured a nasty intestinal problem over night. Apparently it's six active bacteria kicked ass* on Clostridium Difficile that was living alone in my antibiotic 'purged' colon with the most novel and wondrous effect.
* a pun, if you like

I have a bazillion food allergies. Probably some environmental ones as well.
You have my sympathy.
I don't have a solution.

My ex solved the problem in a way that you might try out ... On, sh*t. Forget it.
She was allergic to pollen from grass and birch, to the degree that every spring, her doctor gave her a shot that knocked her out for half a day, yet she had to chew these tablets all through the summer.
Then she got pregnant, and her doctor advised her that if she could try to handle it without the shot, it would be safer for the fetus. She did, and wasn't very much bothered at all. She did gnaw a few tablets (with the blessings of her doctor), but not much. Then next summer, she had tablets available, but didnt use them. Later, she didn't even bother to ask her doctor for them.
As we know, there are historical records of at least one pregnancy not requiring a man. If you are lucky, you might find some way to have a pregnancy without a woman. I guess that in both cases, it is a question of faith.
Hey, when doing a final check of this post, I discovered a CP feature I wasn't aware of: I never typed that asterisk in the first paragraph - I typed an "i" (and it still is an "i" in the editing field). Makes me want to try out which other words are rewritten by the CP software! ... but that will have to wait until I can do it safely without anyone lookin over my shoulder.

Indeed. And then I could start a new religion when my child was crucified by the men in white lab coats! Hmmm...

Thanks for the tips about the dark chocolate and sugar. I have a dust mite allergy and I'm on antihistamines chronically. Any other foods you know of that have histamine responses?

My God its hot here in Sicilië, never again for me, think I Will Go to Denmark next year 😌

We went to Denmark two years ago - just in time for a heat wave (by their standards). It was perfect weather for a holiday, even if most of the locals were drowning in sweat.

Sicily in Summer is a step from being a desert. They are at the same latitude of North Africa, you should expect it

Stop crying and try West Texas for a few years.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

But West TX is a dry heat, east and south east has the humidity too... plus the smell!

Quote: I Will Go to Denmark next year
Might not really help. Actually the temperatures are close to 30 °C in some parts of Denmark and has been probably similar to those here in North Germany where we had the highest average temperature in May for the last 50 years.
Forecast for tomorrow is 27 °C for Copenhagen and 29 °C for Malmö / Sweden which is the same as for Sicily.

Same for Sweden as you write.
At the moment we have just 28 degrees here (outside Gothenburg) which is the coldest we've had since last weekend, on Wednesday it was 32, yesterday it was 31.
The funniest thing is that this spring I'have built a conservatory, with the Swedish climate in mind, which we basically haven't used.

I see some people here claiming Denmark has temperatures up to 30° C as well...
So visit this part of Denmark[^] instead 
"an Arctic climate with average temperatures that do not exceed 10° C (50° F) in the warmest summer months."
Reading that page it actually sounds really nice

By own experience I know that it can be warmer there. Had days with 18 to 20 °C (Photo - Google+[^] ) in the shade in June which is not the warmest month. But there is no natural shade and the sun is shining the whole day so that it feels much warmer.
On the other side there was still some snow and frozen lakes at elevations above some 100 metres.

Chances are odd and 20 C is still not bad compared to the temperature in Sicily now 
Nice photos by the way
