A-CHOO
me: A-A-A-CHOO!
mom: do you need a kleenex?
me: no, i have a handkerchief.
mom: you use a handkerchief?
me: yeah, i don’t like to waste kleenexes.
mom: well, it’s not like they go into a landfill.
dad: what? yes, they do.
me: yeah, what are you talking about?
mom: well…
me: but sometimes i don’t use handkerchiefs anyway. i just use my sleeve.
mom: jen, that’s gross.
me: true, but i only use the sleeve of my gross sweatshirt that i wear to bed. it’s not like i use the sleeve of a nice blouse. sometimes i just can’t get to a handkerchief fast enough.


totally made me bust out belly laughing. my parents use handkerchiefs. i am stuck somewhere between kleenex and sleeve. sometimes i just use my hand! ;) my snowboarding mittens have a built in nose wipe and i think ALL mittens should.
