cravings.
Meg: I should go get some salt.
J: Huh?
Meg: Not like, a box of salt. Something salty. I want something with salt on it.
J: You should just get a salt lick.
Meg: Ohh, that brings to mind a dark secret. When I was little, my brother had a hamster with a salt lick.
J: Yeah…
Meg: And one day, when no one was around, I put it in my mouth.
J: You ate your brother’s hamster?

That being said, what did the salt lick taste like?

*Scars* was a wonderfully deep, introspective piece.
(hard to show appreciation w/o sounding like a movie critic).
But, the salt lick - funny! How long did that taste stay with you?

This seriously made me laugh out loud. I get salt cravings. But never hamster cravings.
