In the past week I've been up the mountain to visit Dave and Cooper, I've been to see a movie, I've been out drinking, and I've been home to Greensboro to visit my mother. This is more social engagements than I usually have in a month. Today I'm heading back up the mountain to visit Dave and Cooper again. Also, we're hoping to be able to pull off a Red Meat Sunday of some sort tomorrow.

I'm starting to suspect that at some point in the past couple months, I've been robbed. At present, I'm completely unable to locate two of my favorite black t-shirts, my Blue Sun shirt, my Leatherman, and my Peerless handcuffs. I realize they kind of have to be in my apartment SOMEWHERE, but (a) I've been looking for them, and (2) my apartment's not that big. So I am starting to lose confidence.

I suppose at some point I'm going to have to just bear down and =search= the place, front to back. Maybe I'll do it Sunday. Or maybe I'll do it on one of these coming-up Saturdays when I'll have fuck all else to do.

There's a new guy moving into the apartments, 3-4 doors down the hall from me. I'm sitting here with my door wide open, catching some fresh air, while he goes back and forth moving handfuls of stuff in. White guy, thinning hair, probably in his 40's pushing 50. Every time he's come by, some pretty gangsta-sounding shit has (completely randomly) been coming out of iTunes. I caught him throwing a nervous look into the door on one trip past, so I doubt he'll be coming by to introduce himself anytime soon.

From [info]wolfeskitchen, How deep should I plant my herbs?

I was able to find lots of information about where you should plant your herb garden (in a plot where they can get as much sun as possible) and what kind of soil to plant your herbs in (in loose, rich soil with good drainage. If possible, loosen the soil to a depth of 8 to 12 inches and amend with compost before planting.), but I wasn't able to find any information about planting depth. Stick 'em an inch and a half down and hope for the best.

From [info]grosely_clerx, Why do people manufacture conflict that does nobody any good?

Because people watch too much TV, and so they assume that a constant state of drama is the default mode of existence. They think there's something wrong with their lives if they aren't either at the center or at the periphery of some sort of crisis, no matter how small. This means that if life itself doesn't provide one, then (consciously or unconsciously) one gets manufactured. The manufactured conflict makes them feel like they matter, tho', so I guess it's doing somebody some good.

I was actually going to try and get something constructive* accomplished today. But then I started poking around and remembered that April Fool's is a =bad= day to try and get anything constructive done on the internets. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to work instead.

On a related note, I'm terribly amused by the comment threads that I've seen that are filled with people who are indignant and even angry about things that are OBVIOUSLY jokes. I wonder if it's that they genuinely have no sense of humor or if they're genuinely that dumb.





*I mean "constructive" in the sense that an actual physical object will result from it. I am in no way referring to anything that has actual practical value :-)

Two days before every store they have closes forever, and they're trying to sell a busted-ass display model laptop with three missing keys for five hundred and forty dollars. No thanks, Jerkit Shitty. I think I'll spend another sixty bucks and get a brand-new laptop that probably works.
