No grapes, no nuts

I must be going through another hormone surge because I keep seeing this commercial during Cash Cab for the Discovery Channel (the one where all the Discovery Channel hosts and other celebrities and such are singing the "Boom dee ahh da" song and saying how wonderful the world is), and every time I get all misty. I make myself sick sometimes! But that whole idea that the world is a delightful place full of beauty and mystery just makes me want to go outside, hug a shrub and high five a squirrel. And don't even get me started on the Louis Armstrong "What a Wonderful World" song. I cry like a little girl. All my cynical talk about people is simply a ruse to cover up the fact that I love humankind, I believe we're all capable of wondrous things and I really want to go live in the mountains, wear a sheet and chant about hummingbirds. There. I admit it.

P.S. Does anybody else find this marriage between Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon to be weird? I guess it's because I think of her as being pretty old and him as a teenager, but I can't help but think he married his mom somehow. Ewww.
