Eat a banana.
My potassium levels must be way up. A friend dropped by on Tuesday and gave me a bag with two types of banana; one for eating, the other for slushies. Oh, that’s where the mamão (papaya) came from too.
It was good, because after yesterday’s dentist visit, I wasn’t even allowed to chew my beer. And that was the advice from my dentist; he’s a good guy. So, having soft fruit on hand meant a mushy food day.
Some of the seeds have already been planted.
It’s hot out there, we’ve been promised 38ºC (100ºF). It would be a good beer day, in fact about lunchtime, I may well just do that. By 5:30 class I shouldn’t reek of beer. You have to live dangerously.

Oh, and another:
If you’ve never screamed at the top if your lungs about a hat at 6:30 in the morning, congratulations on not having children.

I see that Bieber urchin is in the news again, this time in Canada for assaulting a limousine driver. Honestly, that kid needs some time-out, preferably in chains and kept away from microphones. Idiot child.
Two hours later…
Oh, sorry about that. I was looking for something on Google, and went off on my tangent, got lost, had a nap; now I have coffee and just for good measure, I had another banana.
It’s too hot to even think about cooking anything for lunch. Mind you it would be a lot easier if I had something in the fridge to cook. I do, but it’s all in the freezer.
I just ditched the coffee, to hot to drink coffee, besides it was horrid, stewed leftovers from this morning; it almost qualifies for worse than Starbucks.
Instead, I had a healthy cooling refreshing slug on the bottle of iced water from the freezer.
Actually, I don’t know what Starbucks tastes like, and I never will. It’s not that I have never seen a Starbucks in Rio de Janeiro, rather it’s that I hate anything franchised.
.
Franchises are the bane of the civilised world. Give me the old Mom & Pop corner store any day.
During my search I found this. It’s a bit small to read easily, but I love it.
Having said that, I’m off to make another mamão slushie.
Later.
Oh, remember that urge I had two days ago? I am pleased to report that it hasn’t returned.
