Glendon wanted to go out for sushi last week but he had to work the weekend and nights that whole week. so this week we decided to go and went to tona. jesse, mat w, glendon and i. (micah) we had a good time and the sushi was great. i think the best roll was mats "hot lava." i had the salmon teri maki. whatever that is. and the unagi roll. i probably butchered the spelling on all that but thats ok. sushi was great...yeah yeah and now to the good part of the story. mat was super excited that they had green tea ice cream! so he bought some. and i don't know if it was him getting desert or the fact that one of glendon's airmans wives told him to get cheese cake but glendon got some cheese cake. now let me set the scene. there we are. 4 cups of ice water. about half an inch of water in the bottom of each. a bit to my left about in the middle of the table is a tiny little plate with some pickled ginger and a pile of wasabi about the size of a very large almond m&m. So glendon says to me, "hey micah, what would it take for you to eat that wasabi?" i said, "a piece of cheese cake on you." "thats all?" "yeah." "you're on." "what are the rules?" "you have to put it in your mouth for at least three seconds before swallowing then no water for ten more seconds." "deal." so i tossed it in my chompers. it was aweful! it's that asian spicy that goes straight up through your nose to your brain. not only that, when i tried to swallow, i couldn't! it is like trying to swallow a mixture of dry cracker crumbs mixed into peanut butter. it just got stuck in my throat. i started gagging but i choked out the words. "start counting!" so i got to ten and drank my water. then glendon's. then mat's. then jesse's. then i ate the ice out of most of the cups before the girl came back. i asked for water then drank mine and somebody elses too. it was pretty sick if i do say so. well i wiped the wasabi/spit junk off my mouth and chin then ate my cheese cake. it was amazing! so good. well finally we finished and i noticed that i still had the taste of wasabi. it sunk in deep. so i guess glendon won in the end. thats tona. eat there.
