I'm already daydreaming about different breeds and the names I'll give them. I guess I've always secretly wanted to live on a farm (or at least know someone that lives on a farm) As soon as I'm no longer a renter....look out future neighbors!

This chick's on a mission.

Pests

my quiet spot, originally uploaded by Crystal Pistil.

In all of my earliest memories there was a garden......and a compost pile. The two go together like Randy and Mr. Lahey. The habit of tossing veggie scraps into a separate container has been permanently stamped into my brain. Since I moved to Florida and have had no means of a proper garden (or proper recycling of any kind) I feel guilt every time I toss those vitamin packed scraps into the trash.
So here I am with my little container garden. I do have somewhat of a yard, but we only rent and I'm not sure how our landlords would like me digging everything up. Plus, the soil is like a mixture of sand and ash so I couldn't imagine anything being able to grow in the ground anyway. One more thing, I did do some digging around and found a really old and really shallow sewer line into our backyard. Gross.
Anyways, yesterday I made a nice little compost box and put it way, way in the back of the yard.

This morning I woke to find that something had found the box and ate a few of the scraps I tossed last night (a raccoon) I don't really mind, Raccoons are pretty cute, but this one is greedy. After helping himself to the salad bar, it looks like the little dude tried to re-dig up the old sewage line, then he came over to check out the garden. It looks like he stuck a paw in every pot just to check it out. Then he went to have a nice drink/wash in the fishpond (he f'd it up nicely) and to top it off, climbed up to have a look in the window (he left muddy paw prints)

In the end, there wasn't that much damage done, but this was only the first night after starting the compost box. I think I'll give it a week and see what happens...

Ugh. I'm getting sick of hearing myself talk about wedding planning. Its all I think about these days......but, I am doing it all by myself and If I don't think about all this shit, who will?

Also, I've started yoga classes again and they're kicking my ass.

So its been about two years now that every Monday morning I find a delightfully perverted comic in my inbox, that I snicker to and usually pass on to someone else.

Sometime in December 2007 our two perverted minds had a brain link, thanks to Flickr.

I was asked to partake in some girl-on-horse-on-donkey-on-hedgehog porn but decided if I ever wanted the chance to run for president, 'ass in the sink' was all this guy was gonna get.

Thanks again d!o....I'll wash my ass for you anytime ;)

Co-op!!

Voy and I joined a food co-op. Fresh local veggies and fruit. It makes me feel better as person to support something like this. It's the little things that count right?

I used to freaking love this video.......ah, 1998.
