Wet Moustache

I have a moustache. I didn't used to have one for a wee bit since when I started getting facial hair and now... but, otherwise, I have had a moustache almost all the time since 10th grade or so.
I took it off a few months ago, just to see if I looked better, but my dear fashion conscious niece told me that I looked better with a moustache AND a small goatee right under my lower lip, sorta like the one that Aamir Khan sported in Dil Chahta Hain. So, that's my facial hair for now.

Today, I was walking back, across campus, with two plastic bags in my hands (cookies, yogurt, and frozen parathas). The distance was over a mile. And it was flurrying... or watevering. small flakes of snow were falling all the time... but it wasn't really accumulating as it was warm enough for most of the snow to melt.
But the problem was... some flakes kept LANDING ON MY MOUSTACHE!!!. Then, they would melt.. and the water just sat there between my hairs. Some darned surface tension explanation I bet. Now, each time I took a breath, the presence of the water made my nose feel that something was dripping out, and I began to see images of a kid with a runny nose. Eagh!!
So... the moment I came home, I dumped my bags, took out my handkerchief, and wiped my nose and moustache CLEAN!!

whew.

though I do wonder why I did not think to carry both bags with one hand and wipe the moustache with the other. Maybe the belief that no matter what, as long as I was outside in the snowfall, my moustache would keep getting wet. And I am no spider to keep repeating my actions every time!!!
