Weekend Damage

[greenstorm]

Garden additions:
-3 pawpaws: PA Golden, NC-1, and Sunflower.
-1 camellia sinensis (tea) that I didn't have before-- not a teabreeze, but with larger leaves
-1 rhododendron decorum from VanDusen gardens, huge and leggy. I am a sucker for fragrant rhodos.
-1 rhododendron 'cotton candy'. Did I mention that I'm a sucker for fragrant rhodos?
-Several leggy/interestingly shaped rhododendron intricatum for a bonsai birdbath installation I'm considering
-2 kaffir lime plants
-5 varieties of scented geranium: attar of roses, orange, fingerbowl lemon, peppermint lace, and Aardwick cinnamon
-1 viola odorata (cause why not?)
-2 'orchid cactus'
1 tattoo
1 day lost to sleep
1 brain, MIA after tattoo
..
I must buy myself some scented daylilies too. Also my garden is organised and I'm most of the way through Things Fall Apart which I highly recommend to anyone living.

Now to get lunch together for tomorrow's work. Sitting down is still kinda iffy.

Nice solid day spent napping while Angus played computer games. You know, I used to do that sort of thing all the itme; now it makes me feel vaguely guilty the whole time.

I understand the guilt, but don't condone it... ^^ I don't suppose you play Civilization, do you?

I've missed you! I have tea from the 'Borneo Rainforest' of Mt. Kinabalu and from the Cameron Highlands with your name on them (as soon as I retrieve them from the in-laws :) And winged bean and (vegetable) morning glory seeds to share. I'll also treat you to 'Malaysian Gatorade' made of lime juice with preserved plums - I think you'd enjoy it. I brought home lime seeds to try and produce my own plants!

I've missed you too! I was so glad you kept up with lj, because at least it wasn't a total absence, but there's a ton of stuff I want to chat about-- poly and gardening mostly. I had to buy the whole plant sale at VanDusen in your absence. What are you doing this Friday evening? Are you back at work now?

got a wierd return message, so you might receive this twice: Friday I'm having dinner out, and Saturday we're attending a drawn-out Catholic Wedding/Reception. Sunday and next week evenings are available, and ThatGuy and I would both love for you to drop by (ThatGuy said to tell you can drop by whenever you want :). If you can't make it out our way, let me know, and we'll see what we can wrangle ;)
