Beached Whale Syndrome

Are you familiar with that old expression that your eyes are bigger than your stomach? This is what happens when you overstuff yourself and feel it an hour later. You feel like you are too fat to move, like a beached whale must feel. The more you struggle to move the worse you feel, but the sooner you process all the food you managed to shove past your lips. It is an odd situation, but one easily achieved with good food.

Last night we celebrated with some great food from our favorite Chinese restaurant, China King. They always serve enough food for two meals and we took it home. As usual the food was terrific, but we both ate too much. We felt like two beached whales for a while.
