Two Quick Little Obs

[Lalena]

I have two little obs from yesterday that I wanted to share with you all. The sneezy conversation is what is what this obs is about!

Part 1:

I'm staying with my parents for the summer. My mom and I were cooking dinner last night and (Mexican, yum!) and I was in charge of the guacamole, which turned out to be kick ass by the way. As I was cutting the cilantro my nose began to tickle. Forgetting where I was, and that my mom was right next to me, I just turned to the side and sneezed into my shoulder. Just one, soft Heh IshhIeww.

Immediately following my mom said, "It's the cilantro, isn't it?"

I replied, increadibly embarressed after being snapped back into reality, "Um, I don't know ... maybe."

She then said, "It's gotta be. Cilantro always makes me sneeze. It must run in the family."

UGH!!! Stupid family sneeze conversations!

Part 2:

After dinner I went to my good friend J's house. It was a nice night and we decided to take a bottle of wine in her pool and just relax. Recently, I have been having a strange reaction to wine. I get very stuffed up, but not usually very sneezy. Just a few sneezes here and there. No fits or anything.

Anyway, I was in the pool and I started getting stuffed up. I said to J, "Ugh, I'm getting stuffy."

She said back, "How is that possible! My kitty isn't even around!" (Some of you may know I am highly allergic to cats)

I replied to her, "I've been getting stuffed up when I drink wine recently. I don't know why."

"That's strange," she said, but then we just moved on from the subject ... until about 20 minutes later when I sneezed a double, "Heh Ishoo, hih HEH ESHieeww, 'scuse me."

"Where's the cat!" She yelled (she was getting slightly intoxicated).

"I actually think it was from the wine," I replied, "Or even just a sneeze for no reason."

"Your probably right," she said. "If it was the cat you would have sneezed a million times by now. Bless you by the way."

I must have turned very red. Thank goodness it was dark. I just said thanks and changed the subject.

Hope you guys enjoyed! The sneezes weren't anything spectacular, it was just the sneezy conversation that I thought was noteworthy.

Edited to fix my spelling, grammar, etc. (I hope I got them all!)

Aww, I'm sorry about the first part, hope it wasn't too embarrassing/awkward/otherwise uncomfortable.

*giggles at 2nd part* That sounds like a fun night.

Thank you for sharing.

Sneezy conversations are always worth posting Do you have the same reaction with white wine?

Yum! The sneezes, I mean. I can't remember the British for cilantro, but I get the enchanting picture....

I do ... we were actually drinking white. It's definitely worse with red (more sneezing too!) but white does effect me as well.

Thanks for the replies everyone!!

Very nice obs! Thanks for telling us about these. I've read quite a few times before on this forum, about wine (particularly red) making people sneeze... I find it rather cute!

[High on Lullabies]

Very cute observations both . Hope what happened in the first part wasn't too embarrassing for you. I like the way you spell your sneezes as well

Bless you and thanks for sharing
