Kleenex- a big part of my life.

I could be known as "The Kleenex Woman" if people wanted to call me that. If Kleenex created a pie chart of where their income comes from, I bet I would take up an impressive section of it! I don't necessarily enjoy being Kleenex woman, it's just a fact of life. And I often wonder if anyone else uses them to the extent I do.

I'm not always sick, but I do suffer from allergies a few times per year, and when neither of those are the case sometimes my nose is just a little runny for no reason. I bet if you pay attention, you'll see me pulling kleenex from my pockets or stealing one or two from your house. I usually have little packages stashed in both of our cars and my purse, and sometimes in different rooms if there isn't a box there. In college my friend Jesse once said, "Holly, I don't think I have ever seen you without Kleenex." I don't think I really noticed all that much before that. I just don't like my nose to be even a little runny or a little stuffy- it really bothers me! 

There's really no point to this story, I just don't get it and I often wonder if anyone else has a nose addicted to Kleenex. I guess if it's my only real addiction, besides Vitamin Water, that's not so bad. But someday I hope to reach the point where I don't know where the nearest Kleenex box is. And I guess I can throw out this random point, some food for thought- Kleenex has done such an excellent job at branding, that we don't really call different kinds of Kleenex by their real name- tissues. Good job Kleenex!
