Death From Above

One of the many drawbacks of living in Virginia is the ridiculously high pollen levels, predominantly in the spring. Right now we are in the midst of a phenomenon I have dubbed "The Yellow Tide": giant visible yellow clouds of pollen waft freely about, spreading allergic doom in their wakes. The trees are getting it on hardcore, and they are dousing us with their mustard-gas-like clouds of overspray. Pass the Visine... it's gonna be a long allergy season.
