I'm plotting ways to take over NBC. Once I'm in charge I will break it into a million little pieces and sell them on e-bay.

![]() It usually takes a few days to fix it, but I really, really wanted it back up and running tonight. Last edited by night-flyer; 08-09-2012 at 12:36 PM. Reason: I need more sleep...some sleep...or just some whiskey |

Heh. Plant graveyards... I think I already shared my most awful plant-raising moments (the cactus with dust and cobwebs on it really wasn't my fault though).
And yay for MacGyvering computers.

My plans to have an amazing garden someday are going to happen... even if I have to put up a fence to keep you out of it.
![]() Morning Hounds. I'M ON VACATION!!!!! That is all. Ooh. Need coffee. Think I'll put the Keurig aside and make a pot of drippy stuff so I can just keep on chugging while I write/edit/act cool. |

Abby!I am awesome with outdoor plants. But I have battled to keep indoor plants alive. I never have the right light or something and have killed many over the years. But, I do have two philodendrons that have managed to survive almost 15 years. Though they've only begun to thrive this last year. I have no idea why.

Good morning, Soapy!!!
You can help me whenever the day comes to put crap in the ground. I have done well with keeping my little indoor herb garden alive and growing (my basil looks ready to eat soon!!) but I have a little thing with bugs... and have issues being around bugs... especially spiders... *shudder* |

That's what vacuums are for, Abby.

I am my own McGuyver.
Though my hubs doesn't always appreciate my fix-its. I don't know why. I mean, for example, just the other day, I was driving his car, going to pick him up from work and the air vent started to rattle and wouldn't stop without something held against the little dividers in the vent. Fingers against it worked really well, but I can't drive like that, especially not for the twenty odd miles to get him. So I stuck a pen between the little dividers. Worked just fine. |

Hey Ally!
Very creative, Skwirrel! Thinking about cars, I should figure out what in my glove compartment is rattling. I don't even know what's in there. :S |

Thanks Abby!
I thought so. ![]() Mysterious rattles in the glovebox - all kinds of possibilities, from the harmless to the "But Officer, I've no idea!" |
