The amount of crap in your yard astounds me. But then, the amount of crap in my teeny yards shocks me. It's really the perfect size for me (and I actually am thankful for the clay sometimes, since it means I can garden by neglect and let the ivy out front barely advance.)

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Sara, I have not even started on the flowerbeds. They need to be weeded and re-worked, but I won't get to them all this year. And what is really really painful is that there are still a ton of sandburrs. TONS.

My brother's Florida house is barely big enough for him to put a kennel in the back yard for his two Malamutes he's finally going to be reunited with (they were staying at his ex-wife's house and being mostly cared for by his kids, who were getting tired of the chore and not doing a good job). I don't know how those dogs are going to be able to handle Florida weather, though.

Good thing you like gardening, msbelle! I like a LITTLE bit of it, and frankly barely have the time for what I do have (reminds me, I need to rake the hell out of the back postage. Uhng. And leaves are about due to start being a major menace.)

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I'm watching 100 Greatest Hip-Hop Songs on VH-1. Does the Fugees' version of "Killing Me Softly" really count as hip-hop?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
One time!
I have no interest in having a yard, garden, or etc.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
Hip Hop versions of old standards are pretty fundamental to hip-hop. Old R&B is the most common, but really anything is fair game, including show tunes. (Jay-Z "Hard Knock Life", I'm looking at you).

Now tagless for your comfort.
That's awesome, Calli!
I got my new tattoo today. I got a rose on my thigh. I hope it's not too cliche, but since my maiden name is Rose and my Derby name is Rose Redrum, I think it works.

What is a sandburr?

An evil, evil thing. (I'm not sure either.)
