speaking of rice, as in my post of 20 minutes ago and every other meal in my life, a particular mischievous intimate has recently turned me on to a website designed to deliver the good stuff to those who need it most. its called freerice.com and allows you to donate rice to the united nations world food program simply by playing a vocabulary game. wait, a game thats free, educational, and altruistic? im in. for every vocab word that you get right, the service will donate 20 grains of rice. it doesnt seem like much, but then you realize that the game is pretty addicting. also, the vocab words change to suit your own level, so after a few initial questions every one that you get wrong brings you down a number and it takes three correct ones in a row to move back up. its out of 50, although the FAQ say that it is rare for a person to get more than 48.

my score hovered around 36-38, although i did reach 39 at one point. in the epic battle to be my father's smartest daughter, which katy and kristen obviously are not, i say bring it. show me your smarts and donate some food at the same time. but beware....the site warns that it could actually make you smarter. i know you are all concerned about my brain expanding so much that it no longer fits within my skull, but have no fear. i know what i am doing.
