A Friendly Reminder to Myself:

• Write Obama a letter regarding his plans for affordable healthcare, and ask him why we should pay for healthcare for people who don’t really give a rats ass about their health (will elaborate on this later)
• Write Obama about the Sears Tower. If the man has time for NCAA brackets, certainly he has time to sign a petition or two, or write a personal letter to the Willis group about their plans to rename the Sears Tower…..when does that become official anyway?
• Start a revolution…..the country is headed in a direction I don’t think it was ever meant to take (more on this later too, must do some research first)

Mangoes Make Me High

I hope the Manila/Ataulfo/Champagne mangoes I just bought weren’t some out of season fluke. If it’s really about to be Manila mango season, I’m officially in heaven. Just bought two cases for $10.99 each. About 16 mangoes in each case, I think.

Those things really make me high. I get a bit loopy. They make me want to dance. Really. Only other food that does that to me is a cherimoya. Chocolate doesn’t even do that to me. No brownies, no cookies, no cakes…..nothing. Nothing makes me feel as good as cherimoyas and malina mangoes. And to think I have 30 or so of those downstairs. Wow.

My drug of choice

Enough about mangoes and onto some really imporant stuff. Honor O’Flynn and I were discussing the list. Ya know, the 5 celebs you can sleep with, no questions asked, doens’t matter if you’re in a relationship or not. So here are my 5, in no particular order, except for Number 1:

1. Robert Pattinson – I could also do it with him acting as Edward Cullen. Then it would be like I get an extra person, without actually straying from my list

2. James Franco – Don’t think I really need to explain that one

3. Brendan Urie – Hooray for younger guys.

4. Norman Reedus and Sean Patrick Flannery – But wait, isn’t that two people? No, no. It’s ok. They only count as one. If you don’t understand why they come as a pair, then too bad for you. You can’t have one of these boys without the other.

5. Gerard Butler – I had to choose between Emile Hirsh and Gerard. I figured I had enough young guys on the list. I need a MAN on here. Plus, apparently he’s 6’2″. I don’t know how tall (or short) Emile is, but I’m guessing he’s not as big as Gerard.

So there you have it. Maybe it will change some day soon. I doubt it. Numbers 2,3 and 4 have been on the list for some years now. I highly doubt anyone will bump Rob out of that #1 spot any time soon, and Gerard, he’ll be there for a while.

No matter how important Manila mangoes and men are……the GMAT review books are calling. Ciao.

What to do when you should be studying for the GMAT:

You begin blogging. But I thought blogs were only for self-important assholes. Have times changed? Or have I? Was this inevitable? Is there going to be a day where everyone has a blog? Or Facebook? Or Twitter (seriously, what the hell is Twitter??)?

Who cares. This is much more fun that the ‘reading comprehension’ portion of the GMAT study guide. More to come. Go read HonoraFlynn’s stuff. Do it. Now.
