The Saga Experiences a Mild Delay

So.. basically the next step in Project vegetable patch, was to dig out the grass.. unfortunately, due to the high temperatures and lack of rain, it's pretty much impossible. Thus I will have to wait a few days, for it to rain.

it SAID it was going to rain today! But nothing! not even a little shower.
So the NEW plan, is to go to the shops tomorrow and buy seeds, pesticides, compost (maybe) and get a book or two out of the library to do with gardening. And one about poetry you can read in the garden. I thought that might be a nice thing to do while I wait for it to rain.

Anyway, here are some photos of the garden instead, I took them about a month ago, but not much has changed.

These are our chives, which have flowered this year, they've got this lovely purple flowers that you can see, which produce seeds that drop on the pavement and then grow like weeds... so yeah. We can't eat them fast enough :P The sun is setting here, so it's turning some of them pink.



Chives again. Gosh, who would have thought a herb could be so pretty?


This is.. an unnamed plant. It's kinda boring if you want my opinion. Lots of little flowers.


This is quite nice, it's these red flowers (who knows what they are) shot through with wild long grasses. As a matter of fact, right now, they're shot through with LOADS of lavender. I might take a picture. Then again, there aren't so many red flowers now :P

Now my poppies! Many of you have heard of my poppy woes, mainly that they do not transplant well at all :( However, they're doing pretty well in the pot, some more opened today. So here's a nice picture.



And here's one of the new ones that opened today. I planted a mixture of poppy seeds, so most of them are different.



And this is the one I am proudest of! Basically, I started growing them in this ice cream tub but unfortunately, when I transplanted the bigger ones OUT of the tub, many of the remaining ones died, or became very small. However, this one, which is actually quite tiny, produced a lovely flower! It's white and pink. *smiles* I'm so proud of it!



Anyway, enough of me being a complete loser. Lol. What am I talking about? I never stop being a complete loser. Let's name my top five activities: gardening, reading, video games, writing a book where nothing happends and reading fanfiction. Hoyes.

Anyway. Enjoy the summer. :)

Do you have a problem?

So yeah, there I am, happily tapping away at the computer. I'm nearly on fifty pages of "Living Quietly" so woo, go me!
Then my mum is all "you aren't talking to anyone you don't know are you?" and I'm all 'oh great mother's been reading the newspaper again.' man I wish she would stay away from those things. To be perfectly frank she can't handle the truth.
So I'm like "no mother I'm not talking to anyone I don't know" and then she starts talking about my other friends and how they are not online all the time and I am. Well duhhh.
To be fully honest i have no idea why I am always online. I don't know why I have more time than most people. I don't know what most people do with their day if they're not online. I know they can't be going out all day, no one does that. And if they're working....I don't think there's even enough work for them to be working on. So yes. Starting Monday I'm going to cut back on internetting. No more freaking fanfictions. I swear I've read half of ff.net. It's really really bad...

Hokay, so that means no turning on the computer as soon as I get home from school. I will have to find other ways of amusing myself. Um Maybe I could...start scrapbooking? I really have no idea..

*sighs*

I wasn't going to watch naruto today because last week's really depressed me. You know it's pretty bad how completely obsessed I become with my fandoms..I don't think it's healthy. But there's not much I can do. Anyway I succumbed and it was okay, although there was some drug abuse!!

Vicky was all like "You should watch Bleach" and I'm like wow you really don't know me because goodness it's not a good idea to get Sarah into a NEW fandom. It's like going up to megan and offering to buy her soul in exchange for the season four boxset of Lost.

Hirah says she's going to dig a hold, then put in it a tin that says "nice hole" so that some day, someone will dig a hole, find it and be complimented.

If I get another cat, I'm goin to call it Itachi. It's just necessary.
