Jessica, do non-air-permeable cushions pose less off a problem? I mean, the mites live in the stuffing as well as the covering, don't they? Not that I'm about to go whole hog on leather cushions or anything--but I'm wondering if they'd be less bad.
I'd imagine so, but I'm not an expert. (If my allergy symptoms were chronic migraines instead of just itching/congestion/etc, I'd probably be more vigilant, but I just have the basic allergy covers on my mattress and pillows. I don't even have a HEPA filter.]
ita, I think you can still keep some cushions around, but you'll want to go with something you can air out and/or wash. Removable covers and either hypo-allergenic or washable cores. But, like Jessica said, my dust mite allergy doesn't manifest in migraines, so maybe you'll need to be more vigilant.
Some trivia:
In Thailand, a certain amount of people believe cutting hair on Wednesday will bring bad luck, many traditional barber shops in Thailand close on this day.

A "certain amount of people"?
I got four hours of sleep last night, people. If you don't dance to amuse me, I will faceplant into the keyboard, and you'll be forced to read a series of posts that contain nothing but "bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb."

Wait, no I'm not.
Getting stuck behind a HMO shuttle with nasty exhaust has made me queasy all morning. Then I read an article about a bacon sandwich. And now I'm hungry and queasy. Not a good combination. I think I'll wait a bit longer before I start my lunch.
But, in the interests of entertaining Dana: bacon sandwich. Ingredients?

Aww. I'm going to get coffee, and after I wake up a little bit more, I'll try to write some SN or something.
Timelies. And ugh. Sometime last night (before I went to bed) I developed a fever. No other symptoms, just a fever and the gift-with-purchase chills, aches and pains. Despite piling on covers, I can't seem to shake it. I feel almost good enough to do something, but if that isn't going in to work (and at this point, that would be pointless) I should really just rest. Except I know I won't be able to sleep very well tonight if I don't get some exercise.
Sorry, just venting. Random fevers worry me. At least with additional symptoms I can usually ID what I have and fight it accordingly.
