I, too, need to do laundry rather desperately. HOWEVER, this weekend I have now cooked enough lunches for the entire week (and may cook some more, so that I've got dinner too). And I'm sitting here with my taxes...granted, I haven't started DOING them yet, but...um....

And the Georgetown/Ohio State game just started. Whoot! Go Hoyas! (even though I, um, have them losing, in my bracket...)

Futurama update: Billy West (Voice of Philip J. Fry) says they are still in talks for Futurama. [link]

the other good news is that they're doing 26 new episodes of ''Futurama'' for TV and we're hammering out the deal now.The original plan was to have the DVD's first but that's no longer the case.

my goal is to someday have a yard that needs no mowing.

Ta-dah! [link]

You can see it how gorgeous this stuff is in the picture I took of a certain plot at Mountain View Cemetery in Oakland. [link]

Just came back from lunch with the lovely and athletic Sparky! Yay! Now I'm vacillating between napping and being productive. I started going through loose papers earlier this morning in an attempt to corral all the various health receipts I'm going to need for my tax return. It's a huge job because of the construction that's been going on in the house all this year. People not me have moved things and moved things and moved things. I don't know where anything is.

Hmmmm... I don't think I have enought lawn for that area - maybe in the side yard one day ( which has no lawn - just chips). but I wonder how it would stand up to my sisters dogs in pacifica...

MOWING: No Mow does not require mowing. Do not mow fully mature No Mow. To maintain traditional stand of grass, No Mow should be mowed at 2"- 2 1/2". Avoid scalping.

Um, huh? I guess you can mow it when it's young, but don't mow it when it's older?

Or maybe I need a nap. I'll read it again later.

That was confusing to me too, Daniel. I think you interpreted it right, though.

No, I think they're saying that if you don't want the wavy effect, then you need to mow before it gets past that length. That's how I read it, anyhow.

I thought that was what Daniel was saying. If it's going to be mown, it has to be mown when young. They don't want people "scalping" it after it's grown large.

The stuff is really beautiful. And it's really cushy to walk on. If you put a picnic blanket on it, it'd be the most comfortable picnic you'd ever had on the ground.

Spidra, are you putting it in at your place?

My no-mow lawn solution is to get rid of the grass.
