Actually, urine is remarkably sterile if it's coming from a healthy person that drinks plenty of fluids. Basically, unless left to sit and fester, it's not a great place for bacteria to hang out so they mosey on elsewhere. One would think that the uirne would sink into the ground fairly quickly in a garden, therefore wouldn't get all funkay.

Oh, Sonya and I are working on the grape soda to give you the bottle by Tuesday... And I just realized that it's a THREE liter bottle instead of a 2-liter. Is that okay? If not you may need to snag your own 2-liter.

You know that might actually make a difference -- is it bigger around than a standard bottle or just taller? We have pre-packaged quanities of various dirt layers. It might be bad to spread them too thin.

it's both bigger around and taller - significantly so. Sorry, I forgot that we bought the cheapo-brand that came in a weird bottle size.

I picked up a bottle of root beer today so no worries.

What's made Ch-'s education this coming year different from the rest?

I'm not sure if you are asking a practical question or philosophical one.

I've noticed lately that some of my email notifications of comments have been long delayed. I just scrolled back through entries and found this brief answer that I left for you before -- if lj is being glitchy, you might not have received a heads-up.

I also left a little info here:

in the mood section.

For a more philosophical answer, I'll have to get back to you -- I'm overdue for writing about this in more detail. The process of enrolling him in this new version of school has been keeping me pretty busy.

I'm off to do the chicken chores in the dark :)
