Letter to Italy

Dear Italy,

I am still pretty upset with you for almost instantly making me get a cold the second I re-entered your territory. Sure, it might have something to do with the fact that that after a month in glorious So. Cal weather I was not ready for your freezing temperatures, but I am still blaming you for what I have started to call my "allergy to Italy." 

I hear there is a cold front moving in, which will be bringing quite a bit of wind with it.

Please, please, please hold off on that...at least until I am completely cured of this cold and no longer sound like a man by day and sniffling, hacking, sneezing, coughing menace at night. 

Thanks, 

Cyn.
