You guys see that someone is out there working on the line?
Hope he's able to fix it.
I've got basil, dill and cilantro that are big enough to use a bit, though still very small. Can't wait for more dill...I use that in a LOT of stuff. It's even good added to omelets, IMO.
Still waiting on oregano and chives. I do have the volunteer mint - that's going like gangbusters, but mint always does.
Gonna go try to find the library...maybe that'll cheer me up. Hopefully they'll let me get a card, despite not haivng a local license yet.
I've got lots of flat leaf parsley but the bunnies keep pruning them....it's all the bunnies' fault! I've got some fennel up, but it's not growing very fast.
And since I'm so crabby today...
I might as well take that.
You might need a local bill to prove residence. I think I had to do that once for a library.
Yeah...had that covered. It's what I had to do in FC too.
So...I'm all library carded and that. And have a small stack of books. Not the biggest library, but they have a pretty decent collection of mysteries, at least, including the *full* collection of everything Agatha Christie ever wrote - everything. Gotta give 'em some credit for that.
If I'm gonna take advantage of their movies, though, I need a VCR.
Did you go to Tumwater, or Olympia Library?
Just the Tumwater one - it's across from the school...or a school. Which one has the Thunderbirds as their mascot?
Same card works for all the ones in the area, though, so that's nice.
Well, I am naturally about a shade whiter than my wedding dress and I want just a little bit of color. And the tanning parlor is because I don't wear necklines and backs like the dress has most of the time and I can't be bothered to spend hours and hours outside in a bathing suit ;-)
OK - It's across from my high school :~D
The one downtown Oly would be bigger, probably. Haven't been to either one in years!
Well...I *could* just be lazy and request stuff from that library. They'll let you put holds on stuff at one and pick it up at another.
Most of the time I'm not looking for anything specific, so a limited selection isn't a huge deal. If I *am* looking for something specific, half the time I'd rather buy the book used anyway.
Other than the bit about being a scorched cinder, that sounds like fun. Do you know anyone who might like to do something like that anytime soon?
You know... we could borrow my folks' bikes and go down to the short little seven mile trail in Greensburg over the 4th... grab a sub on the way... so long as you don't mind me being quite a bit slower than you're used to....
Whatever became of the guy who was messing with the water line?
Apparently he killed the thread.
Maybe they got flooded.
He was digging all over trying to find the source of the water. Maybe he fell in the hole. :~)
We did have that kind of quicksandy weird area....
Doesn't appear to be fixed, though. Hope that isn't as good as it's gonna get.
*sigh*
