hello, all.
i thought i'd give an update/barf all of my recent history because it is filling me to the brim, right now. from most recent to least recent
today i drove around and ran errands with soma and went over the newly opened skinny bridge to get cheap gas
yesterday was my (pagin doctor) green thumb day: i finally got my vegetable garden in the ground! i had all ready prepped the soil and put it in the right pots, but I went to home depot, got some tomato plants (too late to go from seed) and planted those and other seeds. I also ordered seeds from an online asian seed retailer/wholesaler. Also, i did research on growing a bamboo grove in my backyard (there's an american bamboo society with an amazing website!) and found a local nursery that i will be visiting this week.
excluding bamboo, i will be growing the following this season:
basil, bok choy, lettuce, spinach, skinny little french green beans (vine), normal green beans (bush), soybeans, peas, eggplant, chard, and 4 kinds of tomatoes (early hubrid, normal hybrid, striped heirloom, and cherry)
all of that is in a very small area, but it will produce a lot, i hope.
fresh vegetable for all!
things are, for the most part, looking up: new job= in the works, college=ready and waiting, summer road trip=being planned, crack addiction=stable, prom night concert=almost booked, grades=passing.
anyone notice which doesn't belong?
doesn't matter. things are pretty good. i have no great, deep thoughts to relate. just trying to lower the retained thought level.
