As a child, this had to be one of my most favorite things to do. Picking them, right when ripe, and popping it into my mouth. People thought it was weird a boy of my age having this hobby. People assume they are bigger in the summer time due to the moisture in the heat, but in the winter time I enjoy walking outside, digging for it, and eating it raw. I find more joy in it when I am sick. I hope in the winter time I would grow sick just to get the thrill of these veggies. Now as an adult, I have the best job in the world. As a pediatrician working in the ER, I get a lot of snotty nose monsters. When I have a patient, I cringe of excitement. I sweat waiting for the moment I say “Sit back and let me suck the boogies out of your nose.” I put the little blue instrument down; prescribe some Children Motrin and then head back to my office. I sit back there and eat the delightful boogies the kid left behind. Being a doctor . . .lots of money. Eatting boogies . . . PRICELESS!
