I'm inclined to say it's just stuck. Steak and things of that consistency are pretty tough to get down for a lot of people, wrapped or not. I would avoid it for the foreseeable future and just keep...
I only saw Nissen diagrams until semi-recently. The pics are so... gross! Keep plugging!...
Thanks, all. I've heard the bipolar diagnosis here, but usually associate it with the mania, which I don't have. I'm VERY moody, Karen. I can have a block of 3-4 days that are basically the same and...
I'm told this is a thing. Is anyone familiar?...
