Helianthus

Because I sometimes do stuff other than watching anime....

( Not much, though. )

I need a CLEAN ALL THE THINGS icon.  Then I might actually clean all the things, so I could use it accurately on a post.

( Garden natter )

( World of Warcraft miscellany )

I also found the Thrall questline added with this patch interesting for a couple of reasons.  ( In which I consider the recasting of Aggra, Blizz lore inconsistencies, and orcish marriage customs. )

So a couple of weeks ago, I learned about Hulu expiring their shows when I went to watch Spice & Wolf season 2 and found that there were only two episodes of it. Argh. I'm not sure how I happened upon Tiger & Bunny - probably the fact that it's near the bottom of the first page on the default view, so I guess it's reasonably popular. Somewhere between Trigun and Sekirei, which I've never heard of before, but which has boobs. Boobs so unsubtle that I can practically see them jiggling in the static header image on Hulu. Ye gods.

ANYWAY. Tiger and Bunny. ( I love it to bits. (No spoilers to speak of in here) )
Other stuff!  Tomorrow, we're heading to a strawberry festival, since we're such godless heathens we don't need to worry about the Rapture or anything.  (Obligatory kvetch: IT FREAKING SAYS IN THE BIBLE NO ONE MAY KNOW THE DAY OR THE HOUR, FFS, TAKE ALL THAT MONEY YOU'RE SPENDING ON BILLBOARDS AND FEED SOME POOR PEOPLE IF YOU CARE SO MUCH ABOUT WHAT JESUS ACTUALLY WOULD HAVE WANTED.)  I am hopeful that the lure of strawberries will be enough to convince my husband to care about plants for our garden, at least a few specific plants. That produce strawberries. 

Also, 30 days of Final Fantasy meme, snagged from wallwalker - I have no idea when the thirty days were supposed to have started, so I'm just starting it as of when I first saw it. 

( Days 1 through 4 )

I'm feeling pretty pleased with my garden - we have some tiny green tomatoes, the gardenias are sooooo clooooose to blooming, and all the new plants I've put in so far appear to be doing great... except, for some reason, the marigolds, which look like they're being eaten up, even though I thought they resisted pests.  That's half of why I plant them, they're supposed to keep bugs off the tomatoes... I planted a honeysuckle vine today, which may have been a big mistake - they can go nuts - but it smells nice and I want it to cover an ugly wall.  Sunday I hope to buy some jasmine and some shrubs to stick in our shady side yard.
