REGARDING MY RECENT POISONING

Here's how the menu at McGrath's (a local seafood eatery) describes the dish I ordered last friday evening:

"Macadamia Mahi Mahi- Mahi Mahi Rolled in a Macadamia Nut Crust, Grilled and Presented over a Pineapple Beurre Blanc."

Sounds delicious, doesn't it? I sure thought so. Except the description was a bit misleading, and should have been revised as such:

"Macadamia Mahi Mahi- Mahi Mahi Possibly-Spoiled Mahi Mahi, Rolled in a Macadamia Nut Crust, Grilled Inadequately Cooked and Presented over a Pineapple Beurre Blanc. Served with Hours of Crippling Stomach Pain, Cold Clammy Sweats, and Hours Spent Dry-Heaving into a Toilet".

I'm sure it was just an accident, though! I don't hold any hard feelings towards McGrath's (a local seafood eatery). I'm sure it was just an honest mistake, probably a total fluke. Definiately not the result of improperly stored ingredients and cross-contamination caused by the kitchen staff of McGrath's (now with three valley locations). It's not like I'd try to convince my friends and family to avoid McGrath's (N. Scottsdale Rd & 101 - 7000 E Mayo Blvd 85054) at all costs.

It was pretty much like that movie "Valkyrie", only people were trying to kill me instead of Hitler, and instead of using a bomb, they used fish, and instead of an eyepatched Tom Cruise, the bomb/fish was delivered by what seemed to be a 15-year-old boy. It was actually nothing like the movie "Valkyrie".

In the last two days, I think I've talked more to a toilet than to real people. How was your weekend?
