Shrimp

Shellfish and I never got along so well. In my early years I had a tendency to hork crab cakes. For that reason, we assumed I was allergic to shellfish; and so I abstained. For some reason, a reason I know not, shrimp is a shellfish. Over the course of my long withholding people told me of the excellent taste of shrimp. I believed them.
Last summer things changed. I got an allergy test, and it came back completely negative. I was cleared to eat shellfish. It was with a certain satisfaction that I ate two shrimp(s). Internal affairs were going very well, until 4 hours later at Jake Spelman's house. I ended up absolutely spouting off in his backyard. There was a lot of puke. It was an interesting experience.
