Once upon a time, a little girl named Red had allergies....

And these allergies were of the worst kind.

Bringing sneezes, and sniffles, and runny noses, and sore throats, and headaches, and everything in between.

Red had a hard time sleeping and eating and exercising...all the things a good little girl should be doing.

Red fought the allergies with Tylenol, and Singulair, and Therflu, but none of these modern weapons even had an impact on the allergies.

They just kept coming and coming.

And it doesn't help that Red's best friend Peter just left for seven months, with the occasional visit. Now she had to fight the battle alone. Oh no!

Red will keep fighting these monstrous mucus fiends until the very end, leaving only one victor standing.

The End.

(This is my little way of apologizing for being a bit out of it these past few weeks, between the allergies and visiting family and such. Just remember, I'm still around -- even if that is curled up in a tiny ball watching the entire series of Bones and So You Think You Can Dance. Love!)
