Randomness

- The way a man eats may be tantamount to the way he is in bed with a woman. If he picks on his food in a messy way (supposing he's having the usual rice-viand combo), that is, rice mixed with ulam "haphazardly", "sabaw" overflowing--with Sarsa ni Mang Tomas at that, ladies, expect a man who slobbers all over the sheets, your face and every dry area in the room. Also, expect his hands to be touching and tugging at the wrong places. Every scene would perhaps be a slapdash of oops and eews. Besides, a man who doesn't know how to eat "properly" may very well be unaware of the benefits of flossing. So, girls, next time he says it's chow time, watch that plate in front of him.

- Some women find older men sexy. I woke up at frigging 4 am yesterday and somehow all I could think of was: what makes the older man sexy is the young(er) woman. Picture a Bruce Willis look-a-like and Mena Suvari strolling along, say, Mega Mall. You notice them both but you wonder how on earth did that guy snag (pardon the un-PCness) that babe? Thus, the assumption and eventually, the conviction that older men are sexy. Well, of course, Bruce Willis is sexy. And Mena Suvari is sexy. I don't have a point, right? Well, it was a 4am epiphany for pete's sake.

- Deli France's food has MSG. I'm allergic to it and triggers my vertigo but still I keep stuffing my face with their pasta. Yesterday at the Theater Mall branch was no exception.

- I have recurrent dreams of people I know committing suicide, specifically by hanging. Of course I'd always wake up in the middle of the night shaking like hell, wishing Mama was just right in the next room so she could comfort me. The morning after would always be spent trying to figure out what the dream meant. One colleague said it could be a project or something that I have been putting off, leaving it suspended. It could be a person whom I have left "hanging". Whatever it is, Freud, it's definitely not funny.

- Did you know that it's Fish Conservation Week every 3rd week of October? It's a Presidential Proclamation No. xxx during the late Pres. Diosdado Macapagal (Arroyo hihihi) regime. So stop eating fish, ok? He he.

I have an event coming up in celebration of Fish Con. We'll be giving an art and creative writing workshop to public grade school kids in Navotas, all of them children of fisherfolk. I'll be posting their works here hopefully.

- Randomness is good. Make this a random Wednesday, folks.
