I Like You

…is a pudgy three year old running toward you full tilt, face full of delight, because you are his friend.

I resisted for so long, because I didn’t relish the idea of pouring water up my nose. But…desperate times call for desperate measures. The onslaught of allergens these past few days has wiped me out, and all the Benadryl, Claritin and Zyrtec in the world (combined with some faux-Sudafed) wasn’t doing the trick. So, on Friday I walked over to Whole Foods and bought myself a rather cute little ceramic pot which I now use to irrigate my sinuses with a warm water/sea salt solution, twice a day. Doesn’t sound too romantic, I know, but the important thing is, IT WORKS! I seem to have narrowly avoided a full-blown sinus infection, and the Neti pot was the lynch pin in my victory.
