Giles ,'Never Leave Me'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Yesterday I planted some lavender and jasmine. I hope they live. So far, I brought the roses back to life and my impatiens are like, superradioactive monstrosities, but I've managed to kill everything else.
Trying to figure out what thrives in a part sun, dry climate.
Allyson, you should totally xeriscape.
Timelies all!
I'm so tired of being tired, it's not funny.
There are dozens of things on my list and yet I am watching tennis. I would ask why, but the answer is obvious.
brenda - good luck. And the bathroom is sort of what we want to do to our bathroom.
Allyson I have a book put out by East Bay MUD ( municipal utilities district) which is obviously for here - but I'll look through it and see if there are good suggestions.
eta: mexican sage is a good one - but it tends to take over . But birds bees and butterflies like it. There are some colorful grasses out there - If you need them to stay small there are some that grow in mounds and don't grow very big.
Many bunchgrasses are native to California, too, which is nice.
I'm on tape delay with the tennis. Might get something done after, I don't know.
I'm watching a repeat of Gil Mayo mysteries and there was a little Buffista like cross-conversation about appropriate use of apostrophes.
Pout. I'm supposed to be on my way into SF to see Juliana and POTC3, but my back decided it didn't like that idea, and that I should spend the day hobbling around the apartment and lying on the floor instead.
You know what I need? A 24/7 chiropractor on call.
As I suspected, I slept til 11am. Dang. Have done grocery shopping, am now eating an unhealthful lunch (Come on, I haven't eaten in 18 hours! I lost a whole pound yesterday, and that's probably why.) and will soon begin procrastinating in earnest.
