but its a funny story and an example of the fact that i'm perfectly happy to have you guys laugh at my expense.
the other day, i had to spend the day with a real estate developer for work. When i went to meet him, I was slightly dressed up. So before I got out of my car, I checked myself in the mirror, grabbed a tissue or a napkin or something in my car and blew my nose, since I still have lingering effects from the flu/bronchitis/sinusitis.
Then I go meet the guy. We had to spend quite a while in his car, driving around from site to site. Almost immediately after getting in his car, my nose is itchy. just one side. I keep rubbing my nose but its not helping and I didn't bring any other tissues, nor did there appear to be any in his car.
Everytime he's not looking, i'm rubbing my nose, trying to get rid of this itchy, clogged feeling in my nostril. its pretty much all i can think about.
finally, we get in his car to go to the next location, and he remembers he forgot something inside (these were empty buildings. no tissues).
He runs back in and I say to myself, "self, just get that friggin' booger while he's gone."
Now, I'm not a nose picker, so i didn't really plan this out. I knew I didn't have to go digging for it, cause I could feel whatever was driving me bonkers was on its way out anyway.
So... I go for it. it was more like a scratch with my thumbnail, but all of a sudden, it pretty much feels like I'm pulling brain matter out of my head. I mean, I feel something moving from the way back crevices of my nose.
wtf?
I look down, and its not a booger. its a huge piece of tissue or napkin. I think when i blew my nose earlier, somehow a piece of it tore off and flew INTO my nose and just stayed there all day, obviously hiding from the rest of its counterpart.
I can't even tell you what a relief it was to get that out of my head.
of course, then I was left with two dillemas.
1. was this guy i had to spend the day with wondering what the hell was in my nose all day too? I must have either looked like the biggest geek imaginable, or like a total cokehead with something white and chunky filling up my entire nostril.
2. what the hell to do with this giant thing I just pulled out of my head, cause the guy was heading back to the car.
I put it in my pocket.
