Its that time again. You have that feeling and there is nothing you can do about. I'm talking about The Hanger. It comes around at the least opportune time and doesn't seem to leave until the most opportune time. It makes an appearance usually when you are just getting over a cold or when its dry outside. Guys usually understand this more. In case you haven't figured it out, I'm talking about that booger in your nose that swings around your nostril. The Hanger's favorite time to come out is when you are having a conversation with someone. You want to stay in the conversation, but your mind is wandering with thoughts of your new roomate in your nose. Worst of all, you can't tell if the person you are talking to can see it or not. And the last thing you want them to say is, "You've got a little something hanging from your nose." (That's even weirder if its a first date or a new friend.) So you try sniffing, but it doesn't work! After about 15 sniffs the person you're talking to begins to think your weird. Not only that, they may to think something is wrong with you and you reply with, "I got a cold." But you don't really have a cold! You have The Hanger and it won't go away! You also don't want to leave the conversation and blow your nose (or start digging for gold). You may even resort to the "wipe-something-off-my-face-but-stop-by-my-nose-for-a-couple-seconds."
I experienced this problem today at work and I couldn't go blow my nose for about 15 minutes. It was really annoying just having that thing HANGING around my nose all day. I don't want that thing coming around again so I wrote a note saying, "Dear The Hanger, go swing around someone else's air passage and leave me alone!"
