That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Woot, tommyrot! Hope it goes well!

The reality: a listeria outbreak that has killed 13 people so far.

Yes, and then I got to spend the morning freaking out about the fact that I've eaten quite a lot of cantaloupe since becoming pregnant, and of course Listeria is linked to miscarriages and stillbirths. Fortunately, the grocery store near work, the only place I've bought cantaloupe in the last few months, put out a press release saying that they don't get their cantaloupes from the farm that's the source of the outbreak. But I'm still reluctant to eat the cantaloupe in my fridge now. (Also, they didn't have deviled eggs at the supermarket this morning, so I bought egg salad instead, and it's kinda gross. I think they put sugar in it. Why would you do that to egg salad?? I really need to remember to boil some more eggs when I get home tonight.)

edit: sorry for all the egg talk, ita !

Because books.

Sugar in egg salad? That's really wrong.

Kate P., check in Literary! I left a message for you.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I love eggs, but I am dry heaving at the idea of sugar in egg salad.

Kate, do you think perhaps instead of sugar, they used Miracle Whip (and not mayo). I have a strong aversion to MW and I think it taints the taste of anything used with it.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Have fun, tommy!

Just looked at the ingredients again -- apparently my egg salad has HFCS in it. Gross. (le nub, it does list mayo as an ingredient, but who knows what kind.)

Ack. I was really hoping I wouldn't have to go out anywhere for lunch, since I came in late today and am trying to work a full 8 hours, but clearly my grocery-store lunch is not working out for me.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

What a fabulous first date idea! Have fun.

And Jilli at the Haunted Mansion just seems right.
