I had a dream last night that I was leading the resistance effort against a flock of murderous, carnivorous geese perched in the trees waiting to ambush. Which, if you know geese at all, is completely realistic. So I didn't become lucid (I notice that I say that phrase as if I normally do, which I don't. Look! It's a goose!!!).

I drank a slushie today as somewhat of an experiment. You see, I first tried carbonated drinks as a very small child, and proceeded to avoid them after that first sip. Well, the other day I was thinking, "Self, haven't you had many foods you loved as a child but now hate (see Tang, Jolly Ranchers, and Skittles)? And by a similar token, many foods that you despised as a child, but now, with an adult palate, find interesting (see cranberries and spinach)? Is it not possible that the whole carbonation incident was a fluke of a young, underdeveloped tongue?"

So I tried the slushie. Plus, it was in mango flavor, which is only my FAVORITE fruit in the whole wide world. I took a cursory sip. Sip. Hm, not overly noticeable. Another? Siiiip... AUGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

Now that my tongue has stopped smarting, I have decided to continue foregoing carbonated beverages. Ah, the wisdom of youth.

Reality check. At least my teeth will be healthier.
