QOTD: Wed 24 July: ACHOOOOOOO!

Don't you just hate it when that Sneeze is sitting there, but just won't come on out...
What is your sneeze profile? Do you have a pre-sneeze routine, or does it just sneak up on you?
How many times do you actually sneeze when you do?

I know a sneeze is coming when my nose starts to twitch.
When I sneeze, it's always in twos.

...and when the sneeze just doesn't come...it's the most uncomfortable feeling in the world!

I sneeze every single darned morning about a half hour after I get up - do the old a, a, ah, ah, choo - and it's usually two really hard sneezes and I feel like my head is going to blow off.

I also sneeze after eating some foods - and that's a whole different type of sneezing.

I often sneeze first thing in the morning. Usually about 4 or 5 times. If I sneeze later in the day I end up doing the ah ah ah nothing then ah ah CHOO!

[i_forget]

I only sneeze when there is dust or something irritating my nose.

When it happens, I take several deep quick breaths and then several quick achoooos. I usually have 3 sneezes, which I hear is good luck

Most of the time I know ahead when I'm going to sneeze. My nose itches, a bit of wheezing. Once I do sneeze it's anywhere from 2-4 times in a row.

I don't sneeze often, but bright sunlight will usually make me sneeze when I first go out into it--and I do so three times in a row. Always 3 times.

DH sneezes a lot but he's one of those funny-lookin sneezers and it's easy to tell when he is gonna. His eyes crinkle all up and his mouth hangs open like he's thinking about it for awhile. I've learned that if I say "bless you" to him BEFORE the sneeze actually comes, it seems to chase it away and stops him from sneezing. lol. I like to do this to him ALL the time just for fun, although, I'm sure he doesn't find it nearly as funny as I do. hahaha.

I am a " hold it in " repress it kind of sneezer, been criticized and laughed at for the tiny " pitschew " sound that squeaks out. Many sarcastically say " what was that?!...you call that a sneeze? " I have also been scolded that I will burst a blood vessel from trying to stop it from exiting, but it is a habit. Gesundheit!!

I used to consistently sneeze 3x. But when I got older and started developping allergies, I started sneezing more times in a row. I still always think I'm done after 3 though and the extra ones are always a surprise.

I don't sneeze very often but I love watching our furry babies sneeze, Too funny. When DH sneezes it is almost like a tribal dance before, during and after. Not pretty.

[saddlebag]

No sneezing for me but darling daughter (8) thinks its funny to sneeze and fart at the same time!!!

Usually when I sneeze, it's just one big one. And apparently it doesn't sound quite like a sneeze, more like a shortened cut off cough so I don't get a 'bless you' right away or not a all. Or sometimes an unsure 'bless you?'. I had an uncle who had an extremely loud bark of a sneeze that made everyone jump every time lol. Used to scare us as kids.
