i didn’t go to boxing, and i should have- the next time i go i will be in pain. still, it was sooo nice i didn’t want to sweat indoors. i went with j to e’s house and helped dig up some bulbs, then went to walmart and got some potting soil. i repotted a couple plants and helped dig holes for the bulbs in front of j’s house and planted them. mmm, worms! haven’t had a worm in my hand for a couple years… and then, it was just to put it onto a hook (sorry, lil wormy, but thanks for helping me catch a fish!)
i also took a few cuttings from two different bushes at e’s house- some from a pussywillow tree/shrub and one from a similar one that’s apparently a japanese type of pussywillow. they should grow roots in a glass of water, so i was told, so they’re in the window now in a cute glass. i’ll be checking on them frequently and will probably let you know how it goes.
and yes, the weirdo neighbor’s moved out and took his under-door newspapers with him. what a strange guy. i never had any bad encounters with him but i think nearly everyone else on my floor did… and even some people a couple floors down did! he yelled at a friend of mine out his window (6th floor, mind you) who was walking his dog to “pick up your dog shit!” my friend’s response? to hold up the bag of, well, dog shit and say “yeah, it’s here”. weird.
i also got hit on today while sitting on j’s porch. actually, i was standing, because the guy did a crazy u-turn and we were like yikes! and then he pulled up and started talking to me- he’s 6′ 7″ and never meets tall girls. i said i had the same problem- short boys, though. so he gave me his number and email address, i gave him nothing. i went home and looked his email address up on myspace, and… he’s a rapper, i guess. “hostyle” (actually he spells it with 2 Ls but don’t want him to google his rapper name and see this blog- not that he knows who i am, just like to cover my ass.) can’t figure out if it’s supposed to be pronounced “hostile” or “ho-style”. don’t know which would be better. lots of pictures of him with a terrible grill trying to look hard. umm, so glad i didn’t give my contact info. i’m not ready for a gangsta boyfriend. still, a bit flattering.
