what to say?

man, oh man...babies are real cute when they are sleeping. and even cuter when they just woke up. GOD! i wish you could see!

in fact, the book i'm reading deals something with the cuteness of babies. it actually includes the chapter: "why be adorable?" (in terms of reproductive fitness, i think). that's chapter 19 though, and i'm only on chapter 3. the book itself is called "mother nature; a history of mothers, infants, and natural selection" and it's written by sarah blaffer hrdy. i've been meaning to read one of her books for a while. it's pretty interesting. a lot of biological anthropology...right now i'm learning about the reproductive behavior of parasitic jewel wasps. the females can control the sex of their offspring. pret-ty cool stuff, people!

also, i just became so very hungry. i'm going to have to steal food from some kids.

maybe.
