weird anatomy

I have 3 stomachs. 

It's true!

One for food, one for liquids, and one for desserts.

It's a weird thing....I like to drink.  A lot.  I mean, I think I drink somewhere in the neighborhood of 100 ounces a day.  Insane right?  I'm just always thirsty!  So, no matter how much I've eaten, I will continue to drink.

Sort of related is my dessert stomach.  Matt is amazed, but no matter how large the meal, I always want something sweet.  Matt has this weird thing with sweets.  It's really amazing actually.  He only eats one dessert a day.  Yeah, crazy!  Way more self control than I can claim.  I don't even want to tell you how many "desserts" I've already had today!  I'm serious, I'll be stuffed and still want a bowl of ice cream or pile of cookies.  I'm now a little sickened at that last sentence...gross.

I know a friend of mine suffers from a "liquid pouch" of his own.  Anyone else have this dilemma?

I sort of think of it as a blessing.

umm...i think dessert has two "s" in it
and i can totally relate to the drinking, i am pretty sure waiters/waitresses hate me at restaurants, it is virtually impossible to keep my glass filled
