I want a woman who I can give a banana to....

No not that banana. Get your mind out of the gutter.
Let me explain. Many moons ago when I was dating Winnie* I read something about how a person can mail just about anything as long as it has postage on it. It doesn't have to be in a box or an envelope. So I started to think what could I send Winnie* that would be very odd and make her think, what the heck is that, when she opened her mail box. After some searching I found a nice plastic banana. I put her address, a stamp and a cute little notes about being bananas about her on it. Put it in the big blue mail box down the road and waited. Of course she was surprised and I further solidified my great guyness. Now some might think with the great banana event of 2000, she would have been mine and we would have lived happily ever after. Not so much...
I was thinking about the banana today. I don't know what brought it to mind but I remember I have a spare banana. It is sitting down in my room of life supplies. A room where, if I need something, but don't know what I need, I go look in. Oddly, I always find just what I need. However, I have never used the spare banana that I bought just in case I messed up on the first one. I don't know the etiquette of such a thing, but some day I would like to send the other banana to a woman. Well, not necessarily the banana, but I want to have such strong feelings that I would do something like that without think, what will she think. I want to show someone all those great guyness things that I think about all the time. I want to have someone to think about when I don't have anything to think about.
Looking ahead, banana at the ready, with WONDER...
Kevin
