My nose itches

I haven't done any writing yet today, so I'll write a blog post.

As the title says, my nose itches. Not the outside, but the nostrils. I reckon it's because of tree pollen, or maybe grass pollen, because I can be around flowers without my nose itching. Unless it's certain flowers in the neighbourhood. Curse ye, springtime allergies!

So yeah. I might take some Benadryl later if this keeps up, because we have no Claritin.

In other news, yesterday was Victoria Day here in Canada, so there were fireworks last night. The folks that live in the house behind us were setting some off in the alley. The one kind they set off spiraled and hissed in the air, which got Smiles excited - she barked and ran around in the backyard. It was so funny!

I worked on my mandrake blanket some more, and it's about nine inches now, I think.

Singing to my cat.

Yep. I sang to my cat today.

Q107 played Have a Cigar by Pink Floyd, so I sang along to the cat. Mouse has been very talkative lately. I'll start walking to the stairs, and she won't leave me alone. I'll tell her, "You go up the stairs, I'll follow you."

Anyway, I couldn't knit while listening to that song, so I set my knitting down, got up and paced. After a little while I sat back down on my bed.

I sang, "And did we tell you the name of the game, boy?"

"Reh," Mouse squawked in reply.

I laughed through the next line.

And, a few minutes ago, Dad chased Lulu, Goldie and Teddy away (they were probably on the couch), so they came in here. I made goofy high-pitched noises at Lulu (you know, the sounds you make when a cute dog is near), and she jumped up in my lap. "You're gonna clunk your head!" I told her right before she jumped. When she was in my lap (without clunking her head), I continued, "Miss I-Smell-Like-Pollen!"

ETA: I was able to knit during the guitar solo at the end. My Mobius Wrap is halfway done.
