Extraction Method

By Arnold's Love

"Aaaaaaahhhhhhh!"

Arnold rushed to the side of his 3 year-old who was standing in the middle of his room screaming.

"What's wrong?" Arnold cried, searching his son for signs of accident.

"My nooooooose is running!" the little one wailed.

Arnold sighed as his wife, Helga came into the room and leaned against the doorway, looking smug and amused. He looked at her and rolled his eyes. Looking back down at his son he said, "so get a tissue and blow your nose."

"I caaaaaaaaaaan't!" he wailed. The little one tried to blow out his nose, but only was successful in sucking air in his nose and making things worse. "Waaaaaaaaahhhhhh!"

Arnold sighed again, trying to hold in a deep grown. Helga came and sat next to them. "Um, ok...how about you poop out your boogers?" she asked, with a smirk.

Their son went on wailing and Arnold shot his wife a disapproving look, "Helga."

She shrugged in response. "What? Crimeny! I was only trying to help."

A/N:

Just a little double-drabble based on a similar situation that happened in our house a few years ago...I felt like me husband's suggestion of the new method of snot extraction method sounded very Helga-ish.

I'm trying to get back into the realm of HA! I think it's just a tiny window that I'll have time to write a lot in so I'm jumping on. Thanks to a reconnection with an old fanfic friend and new inspiration, here's to hoping I'll update my long fics...if anyone is still around who cares. I'm rethinking "Words I Couldn't Say" a bit as it's been like 4 years since I touched it, as well as "Weathered Too Young".

And shh! This is a secret...but hopefully epicness is on the horizon. If you know to what I am referring then we are definitely friends. But I'm trying to be really vague and evasive as to not give too much away...so yah.

Anyway, here's to hoping I stick around for a while!

Love,

Arnold's Love
