SPACEY.
|
|
Jeez, I'm spacey today. Got up at 5:30 for some reason. Yeesh.

CHOCOLATE MINTS.

'VERTIGO' BY THE NEW YORK PHILHARMONIC.

Tomorrow is National Chocolate
Mint Day. Seriously. And February is National Grapefruit Month.
Now, I know that these holidays are grand marketing endeavors
produced by associations such as the National Coalition of Grapefruit
Growers or whatever, but I like these made-up holidays anyway. They're, well, sorta fun.

I
was thinking this morning that it would be kinda cool if I could somehow
have interlude music playing on this weblog on the days I don't do
entries. For example, today you'd hear nothing because I'm doing an
entry, but from tomorrow until I do my next entry you'd hear some kind
of elevator music or on-hold music. Know what I mean?
Jesus, what the fuck. I told you I was spacey today.

EDUCATION.
|
EAT ME.
|

Wow,
look how stupid I am. Chocolate mint is actually a real plant. I Googled
for a picture of a chocolate mint with the full expectation of seeing
images of Andes Candies, but instead I got a whole bunch of horticulture
sites. Learn somethin' new everyday, I do...
Chocolate Mint (Mentha piperata) (Perennial).
Size: 12” to 24” tall, up to 36” wide. Exposure: full sun to partial shade.
Water: moist soil, moderate water. Bloom color: pink/lavender. Bloom time: late spring to mid-summer.
Foliage color: greenish-bronze. Comments: plant in a container to prevent it from becoming invasive; flavor will be best if planted in full sun and given plenty of water and fertilizer; for maximum flavor, cut when plant is in full bloom; cut plant back in summer and fall to keep it neat; can be used fresh or dried; attracts bees, butterflies and/or birds.

Wedding Update: We've got
ourselves a DJ (thanks to Matty). Beth has also done some dress shopping
(for the gown and for bridesmaid dresses). Our next step is a florist and
a photographer. We should probably book them pretty soon, shouldn't we?
I'm thinking yes.

|
TWO-LINE PASS.
|
IN DETAIL.
|
Looks
like hockey is done for the season. Dumbasses. The other day my friend
Kro asked me if I missed hockey. When I said no, he replied: "If you--a real hockey fan--don't miss the game, what does that say
about the casual fan?"
Good point.
|
Shit.
Two good friends of mine had sort of a, well...let's just say there's a
problem between them. There are issues. And it's sending ripples across
our pool of friends. I don't really want to get into the details, but to
be totally selfish, it bugs me when all my friends don't get along.
Plus, it's gonna be a headache for the upcoming softball
season, future gatherings, and other things that I'm not going to
mention.
Hell, I don't know why I even
brought this up if I'm not going to go into detail. Never mind.
