I Bought a Japanese Juniper plant.
it looks sorta like this
the intention is to prune it into a bonsai
like this:
I intend on doing this tomorrow. But I don't have any bonsai pottery. Nor do I have gloves. Which could suck as my hands already have red prickles on them.
AH.

bonsaiiiA couplea thingies
Firstly, I was unable to get my shift switched at work so I can't make it to Tuesday. Sorry folks.
Today is my only day off this week. I'll end at probably around 50 hours and I can't wait to see that delicious paycheck. Overtime AND commission. Peaches.
Ive been writing a story in my head in the hour and a half a day I spend commuting to/from work. Its super complicated. And rather sci-fi. Kind of a Harry Potter meets Journey to the center of the Earth.
Here is just a snippet of the craziness I have developed. A Bonsai Bridge. Yes, 6 trees meticulously grown and groomed over thousands of years to become a sort of bridge over a waterway.
Yup. When I say it outloud it sounds reaaaaallly nuts. :)

vadasEvery time I start to write a post, I realize two things.
1. I really have nothing exciting to share.
2. Anything that I could share would involve a lot of back explaining to fill in all the gaps that have occurred because I have not been sharing. I get overwhelmed and sign back out.
Thus I continue to stalk.

Well then it would be Like a Henry Rollins Spoken word performance. Some of his stories tie in with other stories. Or he will be telling something and then go back and explain some part of it.

Would the appropriate term be "lurk"?

felly who?I have actually logged on instead of stalking anonymously!! yes indeed!
I did so for two reasons.
Traffic. The grudge I have right now for the Price Rite traffic is, at the moment, sitting next to the traffic grudge I have against Pano's. I'm sure once the rib sale finishes, I'll be just fine.
I would tell you more about my life, but there doesn't really appear to be much else going on. Seriously lame, I know. Its all good.
I did so for two reasons.
- 1. (e:matthew) and all of (e:pmt) - I am sorry I missed your party. Happy belated birthday matthew, and I hope the party was kicking. I was lame, forgot about it until I was settled in. Lameass.
- 2. I am interested in this Price Rite. I mean... come on its a block away! How could I not? Perfection! Except for one thing...

That sound so fun. I think I would enjoy having some bonsai trees. Keep us posted on the pruning, I am curious to see how it goes.
Is this like a prop for the story you are mentally writing while commuting?
