It doesn't take much to entertain me... Found this while checking out some military wives' blogs... The 7 chromosomes must explain my uvula:
- Valency cannot be detected by infrared cameras.
- The liquid inside Valency can be used as a substitute for blood plasma.
- Valency has 118 ridges around the edge!
- There are roughly 10,000 man-made objects the size of Valency orbiting the Earth.
- You share your birthday with Valency.
- There are more than two hundred different kinds of Valency!
- Bees visit over three million flowers to make a single kilogram of Valency.
- Grapes explode if you put them inside Valency!
- Pacman was originally called Valencyman!
- Humans have 46 chromosomes, peas have 14, and Valency has 7.
I'm not very HTML savvy so let's hope this works... I didn't blog yesterday and I'm trying so hard to blog daily. I could blame it on the exploding grapes inside of me, or on the fact that I've had a sinus infection for 2 weeks and only finally went in today and got drugs. (I HATE going to the doctor). Nothing exciting, just an antibiotic and a decongestant. The doctor had a giggle over my Uvula... It's bifurcated, so it looks like I have 2 instead of one... It's something that happens when you're an embryo, apparently I was one step away from having a cleft palate. People have likened it to looking like a nut-sack in the back of my throat. Nice. But it's great to bring up at dull parties... people always get a look of shock on their faces when I say "You wanna see my double Uvula?" - they always think I'm about to pull my pants down and show my naughty bits, which isn't so far-fetched if you know me personally. I tried to google a pic of a bifurcated uvula and just got a really crappy one of a kid - so here is mine:
Oh how grotesque!! It was really hard to take this picture without fogging up the camera lens. The back of my throat is not that red, it's just the shadow from the camera. Nice fillings, too... AND yes I have a huge mouth... I can fit my entire fist into it... ANOTHER party trick... I'm full of 'em.
