Yummy

[kraex]

I ate my jewelry. It wasn't really intentional, mind you. I was just finishing up lunch, putting my non-biodegradable styrofoam container into a plastic bag, so I could send it on its way to a landfill, when it felt like I had a bit of rice under my tongue. I sort of fished around with my tongue, and realized my tongue stud had come free. For a brief moment I panicked, searching my mouth for the stainless steel ball that should have held it in place, but it was not to be found. I tried to force myself to vomit, but I've never been able to do that, and it wouldn't have helped anyway. So instead I came back into work and decided to have a diet coke. Hey, maybe it's true that coke can dissolve anything!

Now all I can hope for is an uneventful passing. Err, the ball's, not mine. Try not to imagine that in too much detail.
