Conversations with My Husband

Dave's been in Washington, DC for the last little while. One of the reasons I drove down to Boise for the 4th. Normally, we have a big theatre people barbeque at our place on the 4th, but I wasn't about to throw one by myself.

Anyway, we talk a couple of times a day by phone, because we miss each other terribly. (At least, I know I miss him terribly. I'm assuming based on the conversations that he misses me by approximately the same amount.) The following is an excerpt from one of those conversations:

(Note: I was in the Mountain Time Zone. Dave was in the Eastern Time Zone. It was roughly 10:30pm where I was standing.)

Me: So, anyway, I really enjoyed lunch with Grace. And did I mention that I had this amazing egg salad sandwich?

Dave: Oh. My. God. That reminds me. I had a revelatory sandwich today. Revelatory.

Me: Really?

Dave: Did you know that hard boiled eggs are fantastic on a sandwich?

Me: Um. Yes. Since that's the main ingredient in egg salad.

Poor Dave.

He's doing a two week playwriting workshop at the Kennedy Center and the schedule is beginning to take its toll.

Heartily concur. Well-made egg-salad is to die for.

I thought the main ingrediant in egg salad was brautwurst. All these years, so wrong.

What does he think goes into chicken salad? I think you could explore a whole new realm here.
