i hear ya, sister!
don't freak out too much. from what i understand that "dirty little thing" is actually one way the body releases toxins.
you know, things start churning and releasing. most humans have about 25lbs. of fecal mucoid plaque built up in their colons, so a healthy diet only helps loosen and evacuate the colon. i wouldn't worry too much.
hmmm, a tent?
not a bad idea
