all hail sir snotsalot and his arch enemy captain kleenex

Is there anything more disgusting than baby snot? I'm not easily grossed out but I have to admit that the issues that accompany a sick baby snout tend to make me a little gaggy. I'm fine with a run of the mill runny nose, but throw in some unusual texture and a few fancy colors and I find myself feeling a bit woozy. To complicate matters, the little dude refuses to blow his nose on command, and believe me, he is fully capable of a gale force nose blow. The issue is the kleenex. He hates them with the kind of red hot fury that superman reserved for kryptonite. If the man sees a tissue in my hand he will drop to his knees and curl into a nearly impenetrable ball of baby. If I pick him up he always manages to thwart my attempts by wiping his nose on my shoulder. Though I applaud his ingenuity and appreciate the fact this his nose is indeed cleaner, I now have the previously mentioned nastiness on my shoulder. Guh-ross!! As karma would have it, I now have a runny nose myself. Maybe I should wipe my nose on his shoulder. : )
