Had a nice day at work today, too as far as sneezing goes.
Boss' son was home from high school because he was sick today. He spent the whole afternoon sniffling almost constantly, the poor lad. He's a little young for me... and with the whole boss' son thing I honestly can't make myself feel that way... but it was still rather delightful to listen to from the other room all day. He even tried the 'take a hot shower' thing and he didn't sound any improved while in the shower, poor thing. I had tons of terrible plot bunnies attack me, though. And he did sneeze once. He's a rather big guy- as in basketball team/wrestling sort of big. And when he sneezed he stifled it through with his stuffiness and the strength of the sneeze the building-up and exhaling afterwards were twice as loud as the sneeze. So sort of a "Uhh-huhhh-hahhSQUEAK-HUHhhhhh"
And then boss sneezed once today as well- first time I've ever seen/heard him sneeze. A full, normal sort of sneeze. I wasn't prepared for it so I didn't really get a change to click the recorder in my mind on. But I recall thinking that it was rather yummy.
I blessed them both, though. Which takes lots of courage from me. And lots of trying not to blush. But as I was the only other person in the room both times, I figured I should be polite. And poor son-of-boss seemed really sorry to have sneezed. Though he wasn't so sorry that he didn't stop sniffling and occasionally coughing for the whole afternoon.
Anyhoo... it was a nice work atmosphere. LOL!
