But I understand. You gave up everything you had to find me. And you found me broken. It's hard for you.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Back to the HR announcement...

I love the idea of a rogue landscaper.

Art Crawl!!!

From the Zap2it piece:

What the blazes is a rogue landscaper? Does that mean he recommends inappropriate topiaries? Or subverts the standard building permit process? Sadly, the trade paper offers no explanation. Thus, we like to think of him as the Jack Bauer of crabgrass.

Hee.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

it reminds me of a term used to describe people who would covertly throw down wildflower seeds on the side of the road up in New England. Stealth gardeners or guerilla gardeners, some such thing.

So, like, as Nathan drives across America, he occassionally pulls off the side of the highway and direct-sows some larkspur and bachelor buttons in the median?

If I only had a brain...

They spring from his footprints, because he is close to the earth.

I am at work in my silk pajamas, because it is Wear Your Pajamas To Work Day.

This is far, far, less entertaining than it sounds. I feel misanthropic and bitter.

There are also Rose Rustlers, who steal clippings from old roses.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Do they have showdowns with the Daisy Defenders?

I am at work in my silk pajamas, because it is Wear Your Pajamas To Work Day.

I am picturing myself at work in a ratty long t-shirt. It is not a pretty picture. I am so very glad I didn't know about this ahead of time. Not that I would have done it, but still.
