yours and mine -- procrastination rules!

8.23.2006

sunday

the celebration of my birth went well. i had fun and noone else seemed totally bored. we forgot to total all the minigolf scores, so i only know how it shaped up for the 5 of us on the card i have. mac and vb tied for winning with 58, then sharon at 65, me at 74, and mb got 75. despite the fact that i almost lost, i did hit the winning spot on the 19th hole so i get to play free next time we go. i'm actually pretty good at that, since hitting the ball way too hard seems to be a good thing for once on that hole.

i got lots of good gifts. i got some books, the shirt i wanted, a button, cash, pineapple candy, a planted pineapple that i hope survives (i'm not so good at remembering to water things that don't come whining when they're thirsty), and a real concrete gnome.

i also want to say that it was proof that being an adult isn't like i thought it would be, but not in a bad way. who knew that at 25 i'd still enjoy a nice retro-campy minigolf game with all my friends.

Glad you had a good B-day :)

Actually your pineapple won't require much watering, especially after its roots establish themselves. Good luck!

funny thing about the pineapple... it died. actually i don't think it ever grew any roots. it did rot though. one day it fell over because there was no longer anything to hold it in the dirt. and i only remember to water it like once, and that pot had plenty of drainage (all over my kitchen table), so i don't think that's why it rotted. it's a mystery.
