I am now scared
Me: My tongue feels itchy...
My mother: Oh that’s probably hey fever. Brush your teeth- that’ll help.
Me: Hey fever?
My mother: Yeah..... it’s just your tongue and random parts of your face swelling up.
Me: ....

My entire family has flu b and I'm over here with hey fever.
I'm allergic to grass pollen and I live in a state that produces grass to sell.
(The reason I know it's hey fever is because I get it once a year and it's always over heating and an itchy throat and ears with no other symptoms or like outward fever.)
British Summer
When the rain gets warmer but the pollen count still rises enough to reduce men and women into snotty, puffy eyed, wheezing heaps of groaning, sniffling pathetic blobs.
I hate Spring. Because allergies FUCKING SUCK AND ITS COLD.
The Earth warming up ain't real they said, I have hey fever in DECEMBER WHAT THE FUCK I SAID?!
Who would have expected that at little ol’ Hey Fever (a smallish dance weekend in Ottawa, ON) contra history would have been made when Will Mentor and David Smukler decisively replaced the term “gypsy” with the term “walk around” in all their calling?
If you guys want to see some heated controversy (and some seriously offensive comments), go check out the discussion about this on Will Mentor’s fb page.
Anyways it was very cool to be present during this social upheaval. I support the new terminology.
This weekend at contra there was a four-person couple where each "person" in the couple was actually two people. Having them as our neighbors was pretty fun.
Something that happened this weekend
Caller: "...and turn one place to your right in a petronella twirl."
*smattering of claps*
Caller: "You can clap as much as you want to-"
*room explodes with applause*
Caller: "......."
*more applause*
Caller: *gives up and waves applause over to band*
*more applause for band*
Caller: *gives up and resigns self to endless applause*
*more applause*
