fruit of the loom

Those commercials? With women just parading around in their underwear? A big fan of them, I am not.

Not because I feel they degrade women. Not because they've got men in fruit costumes. None of that.

It doesn't make any sense.

Why would a woman send an apple an apple pie?

That's the equivalent of someone sending someone else a steak. A steak made from humans that is.

Seriously. FOTL, just stop it. Stop with the veiled references to Elton John (Women who are a little obsessed with, ahem, a fruit? Yeah).

That's my take on it.

books

I've read a lot of books this summer

• Dante's Divine Comedy (about the 7th time through it all)
  
• The Master and Margarita
  
• A Man For All Seasons
  
• Survivor
  
• A Fighter's Heart
  
• The Dip
  
• The 4 Hour Work Week
  
• Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
  
• The Sound and the Fury
  
• Catullus (a book of Greek Poetry)
  

I really do like reading. Knowledge is power, knowing is half the battle.

weird

My parents are the weirdest. They're still convinced I'll marry this girl who I knew back before kindergarten (maybe earlier?) and apparently she's headed out to BYU this fall, so they want me to take her out.

Weird.

I've got a date for next Wednesday- not weird, in fact, awesome. The girl is way rad, and we're going to go on a picnic. Hoorah.
