  • Lately the Weather has been so Bipolar

    I have a cold.

    It makes it so hard to eat. I can't breath through my mouth because I
    am chewing, and you can't open your mouth when you chew. Even if I did,
    I would likely inhaled crumbs of food into my lungs, which would burn.
    But I can't breath through my nose either, because it is stuffed up.
    What ensues then is a big inhale right before I take a bite. Then I
    hold my breath while I chew, which is an interesting sensation. If I've
    taken too big of a bite, then I end up chewing longer, and I start
    running out of air. That gives me this frantic gasp when I'm done
    chewing, and so I try to chew really fast. The whole process is really
    quite funny. I sound like a starving kid scarfing between gasps of air.
    Hppp. Bhaaaa. Hppp. Bhaaa.

    I don't like eating with a cold.
