oOMariusOo Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 This morning I woke up with a bad cold that doesn't seem to want to go away. Since it's getting very hot these days, I got into the habit of sleeping with the window open in order to ventilate well for the day. Unfortunately it must have been a particularly cool night and my bed is right by the window. With this extra heat, I sleep in underwear and without a sheet. Already in my bed I slowly start to wake up and even before I get up I continuously feel a tickle in the back of my nose. Since my window was open, I didn't want to sneeze at all and the whole neighborhood could hear me. Still half asleep, with my index finger I frantically rub my nostrils to calm the tickle, but nothing helped. Finally I let go of the idea of control and decide to try to sneeze silently. Only I'm not sure what happened, but I completely lost control. Maybe a breath of wind has caressed my back or a bit of dust has entered my nose at the wrong time. But here I am sneezing from a duet loud enough to be heard from the street. - HHEEETSHOOoo .. hehh .. HEETSHOOOoo !! My eyes wet, I felt one last tickle again leading to a sneeze that I managed to keep silent. "Hhegntt ...". I hope no one heard me too much from the street. XD But it is not finished... Earlier, I landed a bit in front of my ps4 on an MMO when the tickling came back, I can't remember how many times I sneezed. Probably thirty times since this morning. I remember a little moment in the middle of the game, when the tension got stronger and I even lost control a bit. We still win the game, but you have to see my face afterwards. I was completely devastated from sneezing. A struggle between sneezing and the intense tension of the game. Since then, I have constantly had a runny nose and I sniffle a lot. Some headaches as well. x) Link to comment
webmeistro Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 Which MMO? (also, wow, thirty sneezes is nuts) Link to comment
oOMariusOo Posted August 12, 2020 Author Share Posted August 12, 2020 If you want to know, it was on Star Wars Battlefront 2. I very rarely sneeze so much. I am quite resistant. Usually it doesn't go beyond two or three on occasion and not every day. Here it was a pretty fierce thirties on a morning. x) Link to comment
Joe Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 The level of detail in this is amazing, what I would give to have seen your face after that fit! As an observer there’s nothing I love more than a sneezy cold, but I hope you’re not suffering too much and feel better soon 😊 Link to comment
oOMariusOo Posted September 2, 2020 Author Share Posted September 2, 2020 @Joe Thanks for the compliment. I find it important to add detail to an observation. This is what allows the reader to get into the mood. I'm better now. @Roza Thank you. I would think about posting again for my next cold. Link to comment
