The kids and I went to pick up a pizza earlier this evening and as we waited in the crowded counter area, I looked down to see my son vigorously rubbing his nose.

I had seen this before. This was the booger rub.

I looked around for a napkin, but there were none in sight. I didn't want to be standing among a group of people, who were picking up their dinner, and see a green glob on my son's knuckle, so I nudged him and quietly requested, "Hey buddy, why don't you wait until we're in the car to do that?"

And, not realizing that this was something he should do with a bit of modesty, he loudly replied, "You mean I should wait until we get in the car to pick my nose?"

Yeah, that's right...and we're going to pass on those green peppers.
