I love it! I'm SUCH a tissue person, especially in cold weather. I'm always folding up my pieces of tissue to put in my jersey as part of my riding prep ritual. Luckily, it doesn't usually involved "huge snot wads", but generally runny wetness ...... but none the less, I relate.
Lucky for me, in Southern California it's not NEARLY as cool and crisp as it is in New England ... Boo Hoo for Tom Brady being out of football this season, by the way ...... Dh is a HUGE Patriots fan. But I digress! While it is not nearly as cold here, I DID have to dawn my "light jacket" on yesterday morning's ride.
And it did remind me of the days in January and February when I wore my thief mask (to keep my ears warm) and how impressed Dh was with me that I actually got out and rode in the cold weather. Something he strongly avoids. He's lucky to have another sport to fall back on. Running is a better cold weather sport since there's much less of a wind factor. But, since I hate running with a passion, I'll have to brave the cold wind in my face and the snot dripping out of my nose.
