banana.

i realized that i have two #5 blog posts. so im just going to stop counting.

today i ate a green banana. usually i like bananas to be yellow with a greenish tint. this one was green green. it tasted like i was eating a leaf.

at vcu they dont do any actual learning, but they do play a lot of fun theatre games. they graciously passed on most of their knowledge to eric and i. i can now proudly say i have an education from vcu theatre.

our favorite bodily warm up goes by the name of 'peel banana'. its like the 'be agressive b-e agressive' chant, except you dont go into all that whole 'b-e-a-g-g-' nonsense.
it goes as such:
form banana form form banana
form banana form form banana
peel banana peel peel banana
peel banana peel peel banana
go bananas go go bananas
go bananas go go bananas

and of course there is fun choreography and multiple variations like mash potatoes, squeeze the orange, shuck the corn, drink the gatorade, tip the cow, and so on and so forth. we have also made up a few of our own like 'beat the connie' and 'kill the baby'. just some grapes of wrath humor to disturb your day.

for valentines day eric got me a shaker of chocolate 'curls'. i call them chocolate 'truffles' because truffles is a fun word to say and is generally referred to when speaking of chocolatey goodness. jai argues with me. she says that my curls are not truffles. i thought perhaps it was one of those 'a square is a rectangle but a rectangle is not always a square' scenarios, so i googled the definition of a truffle. turns out a truffle is a mushroom.

i specified my search to CHOCOLATE truffle. there is a very vague line between what is and is not a truffle. but the conclusion i have come to is, truffle = chocolate heaven. chocolate heaven = my shaker of curls. therefore, curls = truffles. simple algebra, jai.
