sneezing and tests

It's getting cold in Iowa.  Today I ate lunch and it snowed.  Sometimes life is like sneezing big.  There is something, up there.  Something in the nasal cavity that is irritating you, making you sneeze.  and then all your phlegm comes out all over your hand and you try to wipe on the bottom of the chair, or your sock, you know you do.  If you are in a good spot, you have a tissue or a restroom you can duck into and wash your hands.  If you're like me, everyone is gonna know you sneezed.  If you are like some people I know, people in the next county will know you sneezed.  It's nice to see someone sneeze.  It is comforting because in that moment, you see their (1) humanity.  

(1) I guess "his" or "his/her" is more proper, propriety is in my nasal cavity.
