I feel like sneezing. I roll up the corner of a tissue and stick it deep into my right nostril. I sneeze. I repeat the process and sneeze again and again, until my nostrils are filled with mucus and my eyes with tears. I try to stimulate my left nostril too... but it has always been immune to stimuli that make me sneeze! I blow my nose, making the tissues heavy and damp. Perhaps I use too much energy in the stimulation, my right nostril becomes swollen and sore... but I want to sneeze again! I stimulate it for a long time, and then I try one last attempt with my left nostril... and finally I manage to produce one last big sneeze, which leaves me gasping for breath and with a light head.
