"I never told anyone" - a kids story

This is a piece of fiction based on reality....


I am a grot.
I never told anyone that before.
I used to bite my toenails as well as my fingernails and I especially liked chewing them cos they were thicker and lasted longer in my mouth. I didn't want to stop but I did, when I was about 15. Sometimes I still have a nibble.

I love the taste of salty snot and chewy phlegm and sometimes I get sad when tehre's no more goobies or boogers to chew. Sometimes I wonder if other people's are differetn flavours. I tried someone elses once - it was a bit sour but I could get used to it.

I am a grot.
I never told anyone that before.
I wonder why it is. I wonder if it's a family thing or a boredom thing. Maybe I got bored and would amuse myself any way I could. I wonder..
