Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for April 18, 2024

That’s what you get for living in Chernobyl

Shut the door!

Bob’s been bingeing on “Fallout”….

Spouse, who’s miserable when the pollen count gets above 100 or so, has repurposed her Covid masks for spring use. She claims she noticed it helped when it was a realistic requirement w/ Covid. I’m glad it ameliorates her misery.

If oxygen supplied, he’s also pretty good to go through the year be those female ginkgo trees.

Carefree? Flexibility?

That was me during the pandemic. Wasn’t allowed to slow down, but I did my best.

Meds don’t allow me to use inhalers, pain rubs, nasal sprays, etc, so I just have to ride with it. Worst at night but daytime naps help regain the sleep I miss.

As I have said, there is no ‘golden age.’ There is only the ‘age of adjustment, accommodation, and acceptance.’ Gray hair usually indicates that on has reached at least one of the stages and is working on getting to the others.

Don’t let health stores and boogie smoothie places fool you, ingesting a bit a bee pollen is not the same as a full blown hazmat suit. Plus, it doubles as a beekeeping suit for all your bees whose pollen you’re sparing.

I can relate.

Oh nooo, this means mosquito season is next

It is the season of the annual tree, bush and flower orgy. They are all happy while the rest of us humans have to suffer and bare with it.

I need to try that.

I love spring. I don’t love the allergies.

Overdoing it just a tad, aren’t you, Bob?

Benadryl, take my money! It’s peek allergy season in Phoenix. We had quite a bit of rain…for us, so we now have a very pervasive weed oddly called “Stinkbot”. I don’t know how it got that name. Apparently it is in the chamomile family.

Um, pollen isn’t radioactive…at least not yet; Putin’s working on it, though.

A bunny suit would work but the “radiation hazard” symbol is just wrong.

Bio hazard protection suit should be more comfortable, they can be much lighter. I guess that is a pedestrians version of an oversized truck.

How is Bob’s lifestyle carefree and what does flexibility have to do with the pollen count? Don’t understand this one.

homeboy probably has 7 yea

HOMEBOY PROBABLY HAS 7 YEARS WORTH OF NITROGEN STORED LEGUMES, TOO

Some years I’d really appreciate one of those suits.

That will be the Mandated mode of dress during the next pandemic.

If that’s ‘flexibility’ for him, I don’t want to see his version of ‘rigidity’.

i feel a bit like that in early Spring, myself.

That’s the wrong trefoil. That’s “radiation” trefoil; he needs the “bio-hazard” trefoil.
