We’re #1

You say your allergies just seem worse this year. That you find yourself so run down in the middle of the day that you have to lay down for a short nap that ends up being a couple hours. That you feel fluish, but haven’t been to Mexico recently and don’t have a fever.

(And so I must now, if only for levity’s sake, paraphrase one of my favorite lines from “Yellow Submarine”: Funny, you don’t look fluish.)

You’re not alone. I got ‘em bad. So does the Film Babe.

And, apparently, so do a lot of Derbytowners.

The Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America has put Louisville at the top of its list, designating our burg as The Worst Allergy City in the country. For fall of 2008. For spring of 2009 (that’s right now). Maybe forever.
