A few days ago, I attempted to be a healthy, low-cal eater. Grabbed a Bumblebee Thai-Tuna lunch pack out of the pantry and ate my spicy tuna with my 5 (or so) Ritz crackers. Mmmmm. Spicy, quick, and healthy.
Around 10pm, my entire body was aching like I'd been in a car accident. My spine hurt and my muscles felt bruised. I couldn't sleep or get comfortable in bed. I felt sweaty and cold at the same time. Then I got queasy and nauseated. No further details, but you get the ongoing picture. Pretty grim stuff!
The moral of this story:
Don't bother eating healthy. You'll die sooner rather than later!
You'd think that a pre-packaged little can of tuna would be safe. Apparently, the spicyness covered up the taste (if there was a bad taste--tuna tastes like crap anyway, which is why I chose spicy Thai flavoring), so I never knew I was eating TAINTED FISH. Barfola. If I had just had my usual soup or fruit for lunch, I'd have been just fine. But NOOOOO... I had to try my hand at healthy eating. An unlucky choice of food.
Double-unlucky for me, USMCman was on the West Coast at a conference and I was stuck trying to function as a sentient being on my own with two little kids. I now have a new sympathy for vicitms of the deMedici family.
Up until now, there was only one food item I would not touch: beets. *shudder* Now, my list has expanded to canned tuna. *writhe**shudder* On Monday, USMCman will take all tuna out of the pantry and bring it into work for his lunches. It's never coming into MY house again! It has taken me 4 days to get back up to speed. I didn't even feel like talking on the phone or reading. Sick, indeed!
Am I the only unlucky one? Has anyone else had food poisoning?

That's AWFUL! I can't believe they would quibble about helping pay your medical costs-- that's so lame (and typical) of the ACI's. You should have staggered downtown and chunked into their fancy spa fountain... revenge!
