You should have seen the face of one of my co-workers when I tried to lick my elbow,
/darn it, I just tried it again, still no success/
They walked by, right as I had full tongue extension, firmly grasping my arm to pull it as close as possible.
I turned it into a full stretch, but by their expression, I think they caught me???
