Where I've Been Today...
Everywhere but where I should be, which is working. LOL
Who else doesn't get a damn thing done ever since the Internet was invented by Al Gore? Thanks Al. Gives me one more reason to hate you.
Today it's still early but let's take a look at what I've been up to:
Hobby Ideas. I have no time for hobbies so I'm constantly looking into ideas to start a new one. Present themes are gardening (I love flowers) which leads to photography (close ups of flowers); making glass beads with a torch ah, moulton glass you haven't lived until you've splashed some on yourself -- this is fun really. I've started to actually learn this but I don't have time to do it often so I'll likely always be really shitty at it.
What else? Growing things that normal people shouldn't try to grow. I found a link to a kid's essay on how she grew her own chocolate and eventually turned it into a candy bar. Neato, I'm thinking. I want to do that, so off I go looking for where to buy the Cacao plant. That was harder than I thought.
Obviously a tropical plant might have a rough time in the Pacific NW, but what, me worry? Nah. I've also ordered a Hoodia plant (also a dessert grower), and recently bought a ton load of roses and assorted other plants I'm sure to kill in a year or two. I was told it's hard to kill roses, but yes, I killed two bushes last year. They disappeared. Either that or someone came and stole them, but I seriously doubt it.
My foray into the photo realm lead to me looking into digital cameras for taking those micro close-ups. I still don't know much, so I'm sure to spend tons more time there.
My husband bought us a new lawn mower the other day. I told him, "Good thing you didn't give me the assignment because by now I'd have about 50 links, tons of reviews, been looking into blogs, maybe joined a Yahoo Group or two and so forth, plus I'd still be no closer to choosing the best lawn mower of all time because it probably doesn't exist.
I swear, I've turned into my father. He used to drive everyone crazy because he'd want to go to five different stores since one had the best price on nails and another a good deal on milk, but here I do it too. Dang.
All this, and it's not even 11:30.
