cheesepuppet here last weekend was great, even if I did feel too crummy on Saturday night to stay downstairs with everyone. Relatedly, we just got a promotional mailing from Flexcar with stuff about going to Portland. Hmm.
Chem final today. Smote cramps with two Aleve when starting the test, which worked out well. Only one question was any amount of trouble, and a hint was provided on that (with ten minutes left in the test). I think it came out fine once I had that.
(On the way to the chem final, I stopped at the library to return some items, only to find the book drops duct-taped shut. Right, Seattle Public Libraries are closed all week. Need I mention to anyone just how wrong this is?)
After the test, I came home, goofed off, and eventually went outside to play. I snapped off a lot of horsetails that are growing where I don't want them to, and left the ones I don't mind, thus ensuring that I will please no one. Then I planted my new clematis by the cherry tree, carefully because I'm not quite sure where the previous tenants' cat is buried, and moved the tulips I found in the course of digging the hole to a pot. Poor little things had gotten mown down. Better luck next year.
The grapevine my dad gave me is growing fat yellowy buds, so I planted that in the ground by the back deck. It wants sun, and the tomato I had on the porch last year did all right, so I think it'll do well there. There were a couple of lettuce seedlings in the pot with it, and I moved them sort of carelessly to a pot, too. If they live, great.
Also cleaned up a little in the front, watered the wilty-looking pansies, and plotted woodruff expansionism. The chionodoxa's still not coming up for the most part, so I might not see it until next year. Last year's camas (bought as potted bulbs) is about four inches high, though, and so are the peonies. The hyacinths are all blooming. It's a good time of year. Now I just need my allergy prescription so I can go out in it without itching awfully.

Date: 2004-03-23 12:58 pm (UTC)All right then, we'll just make plans and I'll take caffeine if I have to. The test is over at 10, so how about if we meet someplace on Cap Hill at 10:15 or so?
