Sneeze Attack?

The weekend before Veteran's Day, me, my mom and Ed were sitting on their front porch. Me and Mama were looking at old picture albums. Ed sat across the porch, about 10 feet away.

I glanced up to see Ed sitting there in his chair and his head was jerking to the right and he was making some weird noise. His head jerked to the right about 6 or 7 times in quick succession. I was perplexed. My first thought was he was having a 'sneeze attack'.

'Ed, are you having a Sneeze Attack'? I asked.

His answer, which at the time didn't seem too odd, was 'I guess that is what I'm having'. I don't know which one of us had the most puzzled look on our face.

After a few seconds, me and Mama went on looking at pictures. Ed went on sitting in his chair and looking on from across the porch.

Later, it occurred to me that Ed wasn't sure if he was having a Sneeze Attack or not. How could he not know if he were sneezing or not?
