Sooooo.....

Very cool!

I hope Lucent does another workshop in the future. I'd certainly like to check it out.

Our little container garden is growing up a storm. It's so much fun to watch it all come alive. Our peas are growing so fast you can almost just sit there and see the little tendrils extending and curling around one another. Our poppies are blooming, as are the snapdragons and pansies. The parsley is going insane. Anyone want some parsley? The citrus trees are all blooming - a little late, but I'm still hopeful. The plant guy at the market had tomato and bean starts, so it must be about time to plant those as well. So crazy! I wouldn't even think of planting those until May back home.

The bunnies love parsley.

We keep saying we'll do a veg garden for bunny food.

Just bought some alyssum and some pansies to fill in the empty spaces in my front garden. I debated buying a second lavender, but I have a sneaking suspicion that, much like alyssum, it'll turn out to be a "spreading" plant. Am I correct in that guess?

I'm so glad I bought my new rose when I did. The garden center (at Wally World) has no roses now.

Goonie, lavender generally forms a shrub type form. The alyssum will self-seed and fill the available space without crowding too much the rest of the plants. Alyssum is an annual, but mine haven't visibly died at all. They've bloomed forever, it seems.

I survived day two of my three-day mountain biking weekend. Yesterday was 19 miles, today was 9, and tomorrow will probably be in the mid-teens. It's good to be back on the bike. Now I need to get some road-riding in next week.

I can't plant anything except shrubs or potted roses for about 2 months. Kansas sucks.

Oh, and we have about 4"-5" of snow on the ground today. Luckily I've already mentioned how much Kansas sucks.

So here it is Saturday night and I'm home. I go dancing every Saturday night at PBDA but they're dark tonight. Normally I would go to Disneyland instead but I decided a night at home would be better than sitting and watching other people dance. The regulars at the park don't mix the way I'm used to at PBDA.

I got my dancing in last night though. I went to Atomic Ballroom in Irvine. I'm taking a class there and would like to be more of a regular there. I didn't dance a lot but I had a good time. I danced with one guy who was really good and I realized he was Shesha (yes, that's his name) who's won lots of swing competitions and also happens to be the owner of Atomic. It's so fun to dance with someone who's really good. They pay attention to you and make sure they're dancing to your level but also see how far they can push it. In other words they don't assume you only know the basics. It's such a refreshing change from some guys who are so into their own moves they don't notice their partner is barely keeping up.

So I'm not dancing tonight but I'm thinking about it.

Been busy being sick and being a Mod on three different guilds in a site I'm on. It's hard work, but fun nevertheless.

In like a lion God dammit.

The National Weather Service has issued a winter storm watch for central and southern Maryland, the District of Columbia, northern Virginia, the upper Eastern Shore and Delaware.

Bleh!
