I had the weirdest
dream last night.
dream last night.
I dreamt we had a
fishtank at work, and that there were some little fish in it which - despite
looking very much like miniature koi carp - were supposedly whitebait (for the uninitiated, whitebait are great to eat whole, deepfried in batter). At
lunchtime me and my boss decided to have sushi, so we each took three of these
little orange 'whitebait' and dared each other to eat it. He chickened out
completely; I let two of mine go, and went to swallow the third... but I
snatched it away from my mouth at the last minute. All I bit down on was a
little fragment of spine at the tail end, which tasted crunchy and
bitter.

I think I may have
swallowed a bug in my sleep.

Mmm.. whitebait and lemon juice. Well at least you didn't nip your tongue.
Was your pillow still there in the morning? / Were you asleep at your desk lastnight?
It was probably a spider that had come to drink moisture from the corner of your mouth while you slept. It happens a lot more than you think, apparently.
Maybe not, although I don't doubt it occasionally happens.

Ew Dr C! :) Hope it wasn't a weevil - at least the others seem rather more worth it.
Hmmm... On second thought, I'm going with Dung Beetle. It's more likely than all of the others, what with all the shit we talk in this place.
The dung beetle doesn't appear to have a column for "dung"
Aw, I've Weevils on toast. Yum!
broiled cod?
