Sorry, it was either this or this, and I think John Mayer already did the latter.

    I was worried this picture meant you’d started doing crystal meth. You know, as RESEARCH for your new book “Heartbreak Spracked”

    “There’s something intensely sad about this. These tiny creatures have nothing to give but a little package of sodium, but this they give with all their heart. It is their life, their hope, their future, and they give it, asking nothing in return, that their children might have a better start in life. I suppose it should be uplifting, but somehow it just seems terribly sad to me.” from Theodore Gray’s “SODIUM PARTY”

    Hmmm, I’m new here, so may I ask what’s with the giant crystal?

    Melissa Ryan -

    I’m a regular here and it’s taken me many hours to figure out what is going on with this post because you have to be regular on several other blogs to get the reference. I think of it like a treasure hunt!

    Suffice it say - but not to entirely ruin the mystery for you - you are looking at a giant grain of salt.

    You are also free to ponder how Emily is ‘famous’ for oversharing, and yet, is often cryptic and insidery.

    Are you saying you’re salty? I say that all the time, but I didn’t realize that word was common slang.

    John Meyer has already done all people and inanimate objects.

    Melissa,

    It’s in response to the rumor of a BIG payday for a book proposal.

    @Melissa Ryan
    It’s salt. She’s saying take it with a grain of salt or don’t believe the hype.

    What is “it”? I’m not sure exactly, but I would guess that it’s related to the reports of an Emily Gould book being shopped around.

    That is beyond clever. Nicely done!

    Emily, you’ve been blogged…again!

    Taking something with a GRAIN of salt is one thing, but Emily posted a picture of a GIANT crystal of rock salt. Hmmmmm…maybe the rumors are more than just heresay, no?

    The double entendres had my head spinning for a while but now I would say she pulled that one off with aplomb.

    Can we also say this post is an indirect reflection of Emily’s Gawker days yearning to put her two cents in regarding the Amy Winehouse crack smoking revelation? (nah, that’s probably reading too much into it)
