I had a brilliant idea. There are brownies and there are blondies. I was thinking that something pumpkin in a bar shape would be yummy AND they could be called reddies. Or something. Yum, eh? Now somebody should go make them for me.
I have been saving up some stuff to say:
a). I saw a flier in a stall at the gym asking for sexually-active couples to participate in a study about sex, health, and relationships. Then at the bottom it said that women taking hormonal birth control are not eligible. Excuse me? I have never written in a bathroom before but had a strong urge to find a pen and write, "ANY WOMAN IN A SEXUALLY-ACTIVE RELATIONSHIP SHOULD BE TAKING THE PILL!" Of course this does not apply to those couples trying to conceive, but as it was posted in a college gym, I assume they are targeting those who do not want to have a baby in the near future. Maybe the purpose of the study is to figure out why young women might not be using brith control, but isn't it a little bit unethical to study a problem, rather than trying to fix the problem? Wouldn't the medical world be better served by a flier that posted numbers on different birth control methods?
So, may be I was overracting and maybe condom efficacy has gone up recently so I checked the numbers:
Male Condoms: 86 to 98%
Hormonal Birth Control: 95 to 99.9%
Female Condom: 79 to 95%
I don't have time for b)-z). Tis time for Funky Step.
