Ack!

So this week I had my first “Oh, no, I just got glutened!” dream. The offending substance was an envelope that I had licked. Instead of the normal reaction of what happens when I accidentally ingest gluten, I started having a slow anaphylactic shock — the back of my throat started closing off. So I whipped out the toothbrush and toothpaste I carry around in my bag these days and started brushing my teeth and tongue furiously to try to make it stop. I don’t remember what happened, but I think that “worked,” so I was okay. It was weird!
