My (Thirsty) Sweet Tooth

I'm sort of a hobbit. I like being indoors. I like food. I've done some dangerous, adventurous things in my life, but I don't confuse danger or adventure with fun.

One of the ways my hobbitishness manifests itself is in my taste for sugar (unlike all you more human-type people). I especially like ice cream, but just about anything will do. Except those hideous sugar wafer cookies. Even when I was a four year old in nursery school I thought they were nasty.

But unlike my lack of danger/fun confusion, I do confuse thirst with a taste for sweets. Which is weird. I frequently crave sugar, but when I let myself get too thirsty, it just goes through the roof. As strange as it may seem, a big glass of cold water will usually knock out a craving for bowl of chocolate ice cream.
