donttakenostuff Posted October 30, 2007 Posted October 30, 2007 Nothing like some good sneezes to wake you up in the morning, sometimes they are better than a good latte. I hangout at the local coffee shop in the morning before heading into work. One of my neighbors , C, happened to be off this morning; C had a doctor's appointment. Another one of my neighbors, M, who is a regular and with whom I converse with almost every morning , and have never heard or seen sneeze, sat down beside me. As I was talking to C, who was seated in the chair directly in front of me, I heard M (a journalist with short, brown hair, artful dodger-like nose, and a good physique because he's a yogi) sniffling. M then rose, grabbed some napkins, and sat back down. Now, I was talking to C so I couldn't look off to my side to see what M was doing. But out of the corner of my eye I could see him rubbing his nose with the napkins while trying to copy edit an article.I kept trying to pay attention to C . But I knew that it was only a matter of time before M would delight me with something better than my latte. Sure enough I heard a deep inhale, but I was pretending to pay attention to C so I didn't want to turn my head. Then M sneezed a double--heetch choo, heetch choo. Wow, they were so wet. I couldn't tell if he sneezed them into the napkins, but they surely were not muffled at all. Full throated, and nasal, and wet, wet, wet. M blew his nose twice. I pretended not to notice his sneezes and continued talking to C. But those were two delicious sneezes. Maybe he's catching a cold and there will be more sneezing tomorrow

You are right. I'll take my boyfriend's sneezing fits (wet or dry) over a latte any day
liricospinto Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 Oooh, very hot -- and nice that you got the advance warning with the sniffling and napkins, so you could be on the alert!
atchoum Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 Very nice observation. Thank you. And I don't know why, but sneezing journalists seem particularly sexy - like sneezing policemen or sportsmen.
Sneesee Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 I'd take two wet sneezes from a good looking guy over a latte any day, and I LOVE my coffee, trust me on that! This was a super-delicious ob, thank you so much for sharing! And please keep us updated in case M happens to have come down with something.
