So today I took a couple Habanero peppers from Albertson's home with me. I managed to eat half of one before I realized just what it was I was dealing with. So about thriy minutes after that bite, the pain had subsided enough that I decided to stick a chunk of it up my nose (mucus gland + Capsaicin = FUN). That was a lot of fun until I accidentally sniffed, and then rubbed my eye while I was screaming about my flaming sinuses. My right nostril and eye are still markedly warm. You could say this has been a learning experience. But I can still feel the ulcer building in my stomach, so maybe the learning hasn't reached an end (pardon the pun).
