I used to make Tuna Croquets....tuna, egg, mayo, spices (onion/garlic, etc), great crumbs, and fry it up. Used it as a dinner when in college and grad school, when cheap eats were my primary focus.
I had assumed that is what she was talking about.

Ingredients:
Canned tuna
Coconut oil, spoonful
Healthy and delicious spices for antioxidants: turmeric, cumin, coriander, red chili pepper
Optional ingredient: Bitterness over living in Fairfax
Instructions:
After you've woken up late and right when you need to be walking out the door for work, assemble your ingredients. Open and drain your can of tuna as the spoonful of coconut oil melts in the pan. When the oil is melted, add your tuna and sprinkle liberally with the healthy and delicious spices that provide antioxidants.
Toss with a fork to lightly fry.
When your tuna looks sufficiently lightly fried and luridly yellow, remove from pan. Assemble sandwich for lunch: bread and cheese. OP does not indicate what kind of cheese, so recipe tester used best judgment and went with a slice of colby jack.
For best results, let sit in lunch bag for up to 4 hours before enjoying at room temperature for lunch. Due to time constraints, the recipe tester had to take bite as soon as sandwich was assembled because she was already late for work and had to get in the car to harangue husband during hour long commute.
Verdict: tastes as bad as living in Fairfax when you desperately want to live in DC feels.
did you bring your kitchen scissors to cut it in half?
Because this sandwich lacks the traditional mayonnaise to act as binder the tuna is rather prone to escaping the confines of the bread and I cannot recommend cutting it in half at all.

I'm sorry OP- it's all relative. Many people on this board have kids- I have a child with special needs who has decided he no longer likes going to school and lets me know with escalating tantrums every morning. Many of us haven't slept until 7:30 in a decade.

WELL DONE, DCUM Kitchen! Don't want to quote the long post and images, but I enjoyed this, as disgusting as it was. Way to take one for the team. Lurid, indeed.

The solution is two condos, but not side by side. One will be in the city close to your work; the other will be in the suburbs and will contain the tuna smells.

Op's commute sounds like a nightmare to me too. No way on hell would I sign up for that.
That is pretty self absorbed.
I got plenty of friends that live in the suburbs, and guess what, they are good at knowing how to get somewhere on time.
I wouldn't say self-absorbed, but definitely short-sighted. When I was on OKC, there were tons of guys who stated up front they wouldn't date someone who didn't live in the District.
