I used to believe that I had a little old lady living in my mouth who's job it was to keep my spit flowing properly. She would haul buckets of spit up from my stomach and sloosh it around my mouth, then it would flow back down to my stomach and she had to haul it up again. I was frightened of her because I thought she would be cross with me for making her work so hard.
