What is this world Cumming to?

Too much inspiration?

Yesterday I celebrated "V-day" at the Vagina Monologues. Usually I hate to say the words vagina, pussy, monkey-box, twatter-pole...but last night was a breakthrough!! Not only did I pay only $7 for women to "help" me through this phobia, but I also got a chocolate vagina for only $1, and have not been able to stop saying "vagina" (now some 13 hours later)!!

What more is bliss?

The Vagina Monologues were a collection of short stories and renditions of a womans study done about 10 years ago. The overall message, however, served the purpose of spreading awareness for women and girls' safety and sexual/physical well being. Though I've read in anthropology classes about woman-genital-mutilation, I never could quite bring that information 'home'. Strictly speaking, to have a woman's clitoris removed (a nerve line that stretches from the front of the abdomen all the way to the back) it would be equivalent to having a man's penis CHOPPED OFF...a battle women have been contemplating for years.

Anyway, the monologue used the repeating themes:

"What would your vagina say?"
&
"What would your vagina wear?"

Since the show I've been dying to do my own rendition of the monologue--but I have tried and found my vagina to be a little on the quiet/naked side. Eh, oh well.

So apart from that, my Friday was pretty boring...though I did go out to eat with my favorite roommate who doesn't mind that I'm only 5'2" and white... What I learned in life, love, and politics:

Life: Either never use a debit card at Krispy Kremes, or never use a debit card around people named "Paul"...one of them steals---we have yet to figure out which.
Love: Women are deep, dark, and mysterious lovers, while men are awkward, saggy, and ugly lovers.
Politics: Vibrators cannot be sold in Virginia; those who are caught in the act are fined up to $5000 and can be put in jail for 5 years. Virginian women are suffering from lack of orgasms, and we're still worried about Iraq?


--all done in good humor
