I have filed my taxes! Now to see if I get my refunds in Dogecoins or rebates on a cybertruck. If anything sketchier than a delay happens due to the current mess, I believe my next hobby will be taking up sharpshooter training.

This would all be helped if I could get frickin' eggs which were a big protein source when I lost weight before.
Wait, that’s a real thing? I last bought eggs in early January and got two dozen organic for like $7.50 at Costco. Maybe it’s a Midwest thing? I’ve been assuming it was all kind of over blown the way all the crying over milk prices a couple of years was.

Also, would somebody please come by my house with hot sweet potatoes? Like sometime next week would be ideal.

Our wings are not tired.
I haven't had any issue getting eggs. Might be regional.
I called my local rep. They answered the phone and discussed stuff. Said to call often and that they log the calls.

Punishingly Intricate
That’s great, Laura!
I think the scarcity of eggs on the west coast has to do with bird flu (also no problem to buy here).

Eggs here are $5.80 a dozen last I saw. It does seem there are fewer on the shelves than usual, but I don't know if that's supply or demand.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I think I paid $3.50 a few days ago at Trader Joe's.

I haven't tried to buy eggs, can neither confirm nor deny actual scarcity. I heard Waffle House was adding an egg surcharge, but I don't have one of those to visit and see for myself either.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Wait, that’s a real thing?
The entire egg case at Whole Foods was empty. I've seen TJ's egg case similarly depleted.
But I was able to get some locally grown, more expensive eggs at my green grocer.
I timed my walk to avoid the heavy rains due at 2pm. Unfortunately I was busy talking to my friend Jude at Borderland Books about my Japan trip and she was too enthusiastic a listener, so we were both standing there chatting when the torrential rains arrived.
I solved this problem by just staying for another half hour and showing her more otter videos.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
TJs was eggless yesterday. Egg limits on purchases are also often in effect around here. The bird flu's done a number on it all.
