Nikki and I take daily snack breaks to escape our lab for a few minutes. Today we were eating trail mix that she had prepared last week with two other girls that work near us. We were talking and munching away on the delicious snack. We each had a little pile of trail mix sitting in front of us. We were talking and laughing like normal. I started telling a story (that I don't remember anymore) when I noticed movement on the napkin in front of me. There was a little white worm crawling out of my pile of trail mix!!!!!!! I immediately got up from the table and shouted "DON'T EAT THE REST OF YOUR TRAIL MIX!!" as I went to the trashcan to spit out what was in my mouth. Nikki asks "Why, was there a bad pistacio?" As I was chugging my gatorade to wash down any worm that I may have eaten, I hear three girls...AHHH...EWWW...AHHHH!!! Nikki then gets up and starts chugging her coffee. She picks up the edge of the napkin and squishes the worm. The other two girls go....EWWWW! We then sat there, staring at eachother, laughing - but really grossed out at the prospect that we were eating worms and not knowing it. Nikki goes - 'I'm sorry!! I'm sorry!! - do I need to get rid of the rest of my trail mix supplies at home?!?'. We both were laughing and talking about our stomachs hurting from the idea of eating worms and chugging our drinks. As we got back to lab, we both sat down. Nikki started writing in her notebook and I checked my email. I started telling her about an email that I received and I hear...."BURP!!! I'm sorry, my stomach hurts!!" And that's how Nikki tried to kill me!
