It's a hard salami

[jere7my]

Our checker at the grocery store yesterday decided to play "hide the salami" with us — specifically, he hid my pound of Margherita hard salami in a plastic bag behind the counter, despite the fact that we'd brought our own bags and were bagging our groceries ourselves. The net result was that we went home, all unawares, without the eight dollars of salami we'd paid for. When I found out, I was mad enough to throw toast — specifically, the two slices of bread I was toasting for lunch, on which I now had nothing to put.

Other things happened yesterday to put me in a generally lousy mood. I don't usually throw toast. Now I've replaced my pound of hard salami (stop sniggering, Jenkins), but I'm still irrationally cranky about this.
