Finally, a little vacation. I haven’t been anywhere really since I got back from China. As long as the weather gods are nice to us, Phil and I should enjoy a lovely weekend. First we are going to take in a long over due Atlanta Braves game. I haven’t been to one since Mother’s Day 2005. At least, …

Calling All Volunteers: The Stranger Project
http://www.mysteriousandmisplaced.com/blog/2008/07/01/calling-all-volunteers-the-stranger-project.htmlThe other night, as I lay in bed trying to fall asleep, I had an idea pop into my head. Gabe having ideas is usually dangerous, I know, but occasionally, they can lead to interesting things - i.e. China. If it hadn’t been for my rather spontaneous idea to go teach English in China, God only knows what the past year of my life would have been like - probably a lot more boring. …

If You Pout - You Shall Receive!
http://www.mysteriousandmisplaced.com/blog/2008/06/30/if-you-pout-you-shall-receive.htmlYesterday, when I stepped outside and looked at my cherry tomatoes, I thought for one second that I saw a hinge of red, but then discounted it as wishful thinking. Today, when I went out to look, I spotted two little red cherry tomatoes. Well, they aren’t quite red, but they are getting there. They must have turned red over night. …

Feed Me, Seymore, Feed Me!
http://jettisonmedia.com/blog/2008/06/18/feed-me-seymore-fee...This is what happens when you throw left over, supposedly dead seeds into a pot and have no intention of them becoming anything. When they first sprouted, we thought they were all cucumbers, so we we let them climb up a tomato cage. Big mistake. Turns out, a lot of our supposed cucumbers are actually cantaloupe. Now we have to support the cantaloupes hanging in the sky by

I’ve Got Peni Growing in My Cacti

I don’t know about you, but mushrooms are very phallic looking, especially these. And other than that . . . I don’t know what else to say. Popularity: 6%

Finland, France, Germany, and Russia, Oh My!

I’d hate to have to go to the doctor to get meds because I like getting mail - a lot. I used to collect rocks when I was younger. I still have many of them sitting on a shelf somewhere. This is my 4th postcard from Germany. What a very interesting photograph. I really like how it is in black and white, and how she

http://jettisonmedia.com/blog/2008/06/03/finland-france-germ...China, but no, it was sent from France. This is the first postcard that I have received from France. Postcrossing really is a learning experience. Almost every card I receive teaches me something I didn’t know before. I think that’s pretty cool.

Back to the Yard
http://jettisonmedia.com/blog/2008/05/29/back-to-the-yard.ht...Here’s an update on the garden, if you’re into that sort of thing. I had thought that it hadn’t grown that much in a week, but when I looked back at the old picture - I could see the growth. Grow Garden Grow! I was a little too happy to find this tomato. This little cucumber must have been growing for days, but I didn’t see him because he was hiding under a leaf. He
