Peanut M&Mmmmmmms

Grape eating eh? Allison, that is pretty darn random. Not sure what it is specifically about grapes that gets you so much but I have to admit I'm not a fan. It's probably because ever since I can remember my mom has always had a random bowl of grapes on our kitchen table. It doesn't matter if they're a week old, she keeps them there until they are noticeably gross and then replaces them with a fresh new COSCO, oh yes I said COSCO size bag of grapes.


I'm not sure if she notices that nobody eats them. Mom if you're reading this, I'm sorry, but nobody eats the grapes. This is not a blog about my mom though.


So back to what do I eat but I shouldn't? Wow, where does the list even begin? 

1. Bagels with cream cheese and tomato slices on top
2. Cheesy Chex Mix (I'm usually many drinks deep and unstoppable with this one)
3. Chicken Wings with extra spicy BBQ sauce (can't say no to 25 cent wings)
4. Milanos (dipped in hot tea...amazing)
5. Carbs, carbs, carbs!

But above all my food obsessions I have always had a serious addictions to peanut m&ms. The combination of the crunch, with the salt, with the chocolate, OH MY GOD, it's a cranky female's dream come true! (and boy do I have mood swings). And as coincidences always occur, today, of all days, at Small Army Agency, Allison, Kelsey and Alex, decided to buy 12 bags of peanut m&m's to fill a giant bowl in our waiting area.

ARE YOU SERIOUS?
I have been purposely avoiding those colorful little bites, and now you are putting thousands of them right where I walk by every ten minutes to get to the printer! What sick joke is this, and why why why, of all candies, did you choose peanut m&m's?
I will have to keep you all posted on my self control, but I can admit right now that I have already had two handfuls, and it's only been 2 hours.


So Jess, and Kelsey, what should I go buy a thousand of tomorrow and Thursday so that you can suffer at work?

Choose Me, Rogue

I have to admit metal armor, and the ability to live underwater are very enticing super hero characteristics. Especially since my obsession with The Little Mermaid spanning the majority of my childhood (some may argue into adulthood) resulted in many dreams about swimming endlessly underwater without the need for air.

So which superhero, superheroin, whatever you call it, would I choose? Well, I think I see it as the other way around. Which Superhero would choose me, to play them, in an upcoming imdb number one blockbuster this coming fall?

Easy answer: Rogue from X Men (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0290334/). Rumor has it there might be more of this wonderful movie series to come, unfortunately they have already cast Anna Paquin (http://www.imdb.com/character/ch0001098/). But if she suddenly starts demanding millions over budget, Bryan Singer, you know where to find me. Now my reasoning for Rogue choosing me is simple. I am not big on human contact, and if you are reading this and don't understand the connection, let me quickly fill you in:

ROGUE IS DEADLY BY TOUCH. 

Specifically, she has "the ability to steal the powers or life energy of others" (again http://www.imdb.com/character/ch0001098/bio). Her first kiss resulted in a horrifying and literally paralyzing response from her high school crush. I like to think that my first kiss died instantly after contact, which would explain a lot of missed calls. 

Besides from my issues with touching, Rogue is also one of the few super heros who does not indulge in ultra tight spandex showing off the extremely large gluteus maximus and pectoral muscles found specifically on lavishly built females with triple D braw size. Instead, Rogue shops at the more flowing cape-like boutiques, where you may experience delightful run-ins with other fashionistas such as Hermoine and/or Ron who are casually shopping during their summer vacation from Hogwarts.

Now speaking of fashionista, who can resist that gorgeous whisp of grey in the front of Rogue's very youthful hair? I am always up for trying new hairstyles, and my dear Rogue I believe you really nailed the creativity with this one.

But to sum up this rambling, I guess I don't desire someone else's powers, I simply want to have powers as an easy way to cover my oddities. I don't like being touched, I like flowy clothing, and I dye my hair way too often. Did I forget to mention we both have green eyes?

Bryan Singer, I'm waiting for your call.
