Okay guys, I have a serious problem. Really. So, it's summer vacation, right? Time to have fun in the sun, work on a ton of projects,maybe get a little tan by taking a good old Agatha Christie out to the hammock with me. Better yet, I should plant a garden!Ya, not happening.
So here's the problem- I spend almost all my time hiding away in my cold dark basement. Seriously, I can't even see the sun down here!
Now, it is partly to blame on the fact that I have chemistry, and I can sort of accept that (by the way, almost half-way done! I almost peed myself when I realized this, I was laughing so hard with total and complete joy.) But really, that's no excuse. I went and did my homework outside today. It was heavenly. The bigger problem is that when I go out in the sun, I pretty much just burn, and when I go outside, it takes about half an hour for my allergies to kick in, and that's NEVER pretty. So I freeze in my basement.
There's one other factor that goes into this too. I seriously don't like yardwork. I love flowers, and I don't mind dirt (provide that i can wash it off the second I go inside), but I hate not being able to see what's hiding under a bush or in the rocks. That, and if it's possible to have an anti-green thumb, I most definetly have it. I can kill just about any plant given a few weeks, no matter how hard I try.
But I'm having a thought. What if I tried to grow a cactus? Seriously, those things have got to be some of the sturdiest plants (a.k.a. harder to kill), so I'm kind of thinking I might be able to handle it. And, as an added bonus, it might force me to leave my basement. Will this actually happen? We'll see. But right now, a cactus sounds good. Toodlies!
