Useless Personal Trivia

I have photic sneeze reflex which means that when needing to sneeze, looking at bright light helps to bring the sneeze on. My sister has it and so does my dad.

I have just read this entire thread.

Parts posts some interesting things. And reading it has made me miss lutra, he can be pretty funny. Lots of stuff I could say. Everyone has unique quirks.

There were a few children books where kids would wake with a sneeze, because of a ray of sunlight getting through the curtains, tickling their faces. (from more than one writer) I never got that, so I thought I was weird for not having this photic sneeze reflex. My mother does have it.

People have been amused when I need to sneeze and try to find a good source of light.

This is an example of how bad my memory is, I have forgotten most of what I have read. Typical me. You are invited, though, to post an interesting quirk or two about yourself.

Me? I'm normal
I've noticed that everybody else has interesting quirks though. Especially NTs

Wonder if I do?
I need to test that now.

I sneeze in fits of 4 or 6 every morning. Nothing like taking that big fresh breath of morning air when you're allergic to everything.

I get one sneeze out, two at the most. Whereas Ceilidh will sneeze many times in a row. I call them her cat sneezes.
We are both allergic to cats and dust.

I'm pretty sure photic sneezes are somehow genetic.  My son has it too.
