Getting to the tail end of my cold now. The fever has gone away, and I spent most of the last couple of days wheezing with asthma and hacking up juicy dark yellow whoppers. This brings me to today's blog topic.

Do you ever do this?

Sometimes you cough up a real thick phlegm, but you`re not close enough to a spitting station (a sink, a planted shrub, or a sewer grate). So the only choice is to hold it in your mouth until you find somewhere to spit it out. But now and then, for no particular reason, while you've got a loogy in your mouth, you might just flip it over from beneath your tongue to over top. Then after you taste that salty slime, you think to yourself, "Eeww... that was kinda gross."

Hell, no, I don't do that. But I do admit to having a loogy in my mouth until (no more than 30 seconds later) I spit it out at a more appropriate place. And I'm in a damned rush to do so too.
