I just read somewhere (blogland) that if you are in a situation where you have to concentrate on talking to people you don’t know well, and you are pretty bored, but you don’t want to let on to them, that you should visualize the types of things that could be easily inserted into their nostrils. Magic markers, jelly beans, coins, erasers, etc. That way, you are looking at them intently, but in reality, you are amusing yourself. You’d be surprised when you start looking at people’s nostrils how different they all are .. some are big, some are little, some are round, some are flat, some are easily accessed …
I’m just saying … in case you’re ever in that kind of situation …
You & your mom are going to make people self-concious about their noses. I can see you’re not looking into my eyes, but at least your not looking at the zip on my chin or, worse, my boobs.

When I was in boot camp they told us to concentrate on the area right between the drill instructors eyebrows, that way you at least looked like you were paying attention and looking at him. And, I agree with Emily, there are guys who will stare right at the boobs. Had a situation like that at work and the gentleman in question was spoken to about where his eyes always seemed to wander. It made the women uncomforatble.

JRG, that man at work who always stared right at the boobs was NO gentleman!
