Museo de jamón

Quick story:

When I was in elementary school, my dad packed my lunches. He apparently had no concept of appropriate portions for young children, so as an eight-year-old, I ate two-inch-thick turkey sandwiches and plastic bags loaded to the point of stretching with animal crackers for lunch. To say I was lethargic in afternoon lessons is a massive understatement. I laid my head down on the desk and silently sang spirituals about my gastroenterological woes:

"Waaaaaiiit for your waaaaatttle
waaaaiiit for your wat-tle chil-dren
waaaaiiit for your waaaaatttle
God's gonna give you a waaaaatttle"

Thanks to a highly active thyroid, I survived through my teenage years without getting fat. Of course, it's all starting to catch up to me now. Yeah spare tire!

Welcome to blogworld. You'll be sick of it and blogging twice a month out of guilt in no time.

Looking forward to the next Namebursting.
