the perils of a runny nose.

there are a couple of key components to this story.

1. i am recovering from the flu and/or the black death. i managed to drag myself out of bed this morning (hooray) and somehow convinced myself that i am no longer contagious (it's been more than 24 hours since i had a fever, thankyouverymuch.) unfortunately, i am still sneezing. sudden, explosive sneezes. i have a giant box of kleenex next to me, so every time i feel the slightest bit of a twitch in my nose, i shove a handful of tissues towards my face to catch the sneeze.

2. i am also wearing my super glossy lipgloss today. (in juicy apple, if you were wondering.) this stuff is like industrial strength glossy. very sticky. i love it though. because it lasts for a good 4-5 hours. and because i am recovering from the plague, i thought a little bit of color on my face might help.

both of these circumstances might seem innocent enough. but this morning, i stopped by the bathroom. and while washing my hands, looked up at my reflection to see little bits of kleenex stuck to my lips.
