We've been here for about a week now, and it's the first time I've lived next to a large body of water.  The air feels different because of the humidity, but my allergies seem remarkably under control and I find myself only using my inhaler once a day now.  

My less affecting allergies could also be the result of having nothing in my apartment for Charlotte's dander to cling to, not even carpet because we have hardwood floors.  Have you slept on hardwood floor?  It feels like what I imagine lying in an inexpensive coffin would, without padding or pillows, the kind of coffin I could afford after living in this city.

We purchased an air mattress before we left Salt Lake City, predicting that it was very possible we'd never see our furniture again.  Unfortunately the air mattress deflates itself every night around 3:00 a.m., causing SML to exclaim, "This is just SO luxurious."
