If I had one wish fulfilled tonight / I'd ask for the sun to never rise
Last night Mike and I went to Las Iguanas.During the day, I ate a bowl of cereal for breakfast and then starved myself (Hi, Dr. B!). Consequently I was actually having dizzy spells when we got there so I ordered most sugary drink in the world.
"Hi, are you ready to order now?" the waitress said, just as I took a sip of The Drink.
"Yes," I said after swallowing. Oh holy crap. There is something in my mouth. Multiple somethings.
"I'll have the erm... Quiso..." I decided to point. A) because I don't speak Spanish, and, to waitresses, I barely speak English and b) because THERE WAS SOMETHING IN MY MOUTH.
"Mike," I hissed after I had finished ordering. "What the fuck is in my mouth?"
I opened my mouth to show him the contents. He raised his eyebrows.
"Okay Gill, a) this is completely gross in public and b) there are about 20 black round things on your tongue."
I practically wretched and spat them into a napkin, which the waitress promptly removed.
"I can't take you anywhere, can I?" he said.
I actually managed three courses. A parcel of melted Brie and mangos, a shoulder of lamb in coconut sauce and coconut ice cream with pineapples (so three deserts then).
And yes, my tongue did swell up.
And yes, it was totally worth it.

Mike: I have big ears, don't I?
Me: Yes, you do.

um... what *exactly* was in your mouth?!
SEEDS. It was *vile*
You two are adorable.
Gotta say...that sounds pretty disgusting. What kind of seeds?
Beetles, I suspect.
It didn't involve pomegranites did it? I have issues with those after a yoghurt incident..
Omg yes, more parallelness. And passionfruit. Bad combo, big black seeds and strange jelly things.
So glad to see you've got chest bumps.
Last time you referred to them in your blog I thought you meant to say he was looking for them, not at.
Oh, and large, not-at-all-horsey eyes.
Large, hungry eyes?
:)
