RevNONelation

Something happened that never happened before. I didn't think it would ever occur, and yet here it is biting my thoughts and parching my throat. While I sip my strawberry smoothie, I feel a teensy bit of gratuity toward the pink drink. At least one food item doesn't make me want to barf today.

I had sesame bread and shrimps for lunch today. Before you get too bored, I'll say now that these two items were pretty much the essences of the story. I downed the bread no problem, but as I ate each shrimp, a feeling came over me I never experienced when eating food I didn't dislike.

Nausea.

For the first shrimp I ate, I could feel the deep disgust as I burrowed my teeth into the flesh. And before I could gag, I'd swallow it quickly, thinking that it would be the panacea to this horror and everything was just part of my imagination. Wrong move. The next three weren't better and I gave up, settling on eating watermelon for the remainder of my snack.

I'm not vegetarian and had never been. Not because I particularly liked non-veggies, but the fact that I would probably die in less than a week. I disliked bean products (eg: tofu, bean sprouts, red/green bean) and the majority of the green veggie group. And water too, just fyi. So it would only make sense to balance my nutrition a bit with meat and seafood.

But I can't understand why I felt so much disgust today. Worse, I couldn't purge it and go eat something else. I'm not brave enough to do that. So I'd rather sit here and cover the flavor by guzzling the pink drink.

I have to rethink my diet.

Notes:
My deep condolences and best wishes to Michael Jackson and his family.
