Need new tongue

I have a problem with my tongue. I have these extreme inflamed taste buds and they are ruining everything. By everything I mean eating. Last night I went out with a couple friends to see Coco Before Chanel. Not as empty headed as one might think, I think Coco was a bit of an old feminist. After we ran around looking for early bird menus only to realise... it was Sunday! We settled for a big juicy burger and a couple bottles of wine. Here is where my problems begin. The wine was a lovely soft, fruit red and as the night wore on my taste buds were assaulted with wave after wave of the sweet nectar. The acidity in the wine started to wear them down and next thing I knew they were very, very painful. "Ok" I thought "well I'll go to sleep and hopefully they will be healed by tomorrow." WRONG. Instead they were much worse. And to top it off today was the day when husband's uncle was cooking two whole salmon. I really tried to rally, I attempted to use the other part of my tongue to taste all the wonderful flavours of our meal. It didn't work and I think the spicy tomato salsa sent me over the brink. Please I just want my tongue back.
