You'd never make it. I'd rip your spine out before you got half a step. Those little legs wouldn't be much good without one of those.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

That is my new favorite tumblr! I have to resist from reposting all of the posts.

It's surprisingly hard to spontaneously address your cat in Get Out Of There Cat-speak. But we keep trying. Not that the cats care because they do not know about internet memes they are cats.

Because books.

My neighbor's idea of a weak rum and Coke is strangely STRONG. Especially on an empty stomach.

That right there is perfect.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Sox, I got home (NJ) yesterday afternoon. But Philadelphia is delightfully only an hour and a half away. I think I could live in Chadds Ford and die happy from all the conveniently located arboreta and botanic gardens.

I can practically throw a rock at Chadds Ford from where I live.

Heh. But I had to work on it; it wasn't spontaneous.

Oh my god, I would kill Toke if she did that. (You are not spices cat. You cannot make a meal more flavorful and zesty. You can only make a meal furry but what do you know about gourmet food you eat gooshy food you are a cat.)

Sounds mini-F2F-ish to me...

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

The first time I stayed at the Brandywine River Hotel, I was mortified at (I'm sorry) how it was 100% guested by blue-haired ladies. The second (this) time, I was wishing for those wonderful, quiet, respectful ladies back. My neighbor was on the phone until 4am, and then back on the phone at 6am and some passive aggressive door-slamming going on.

I could be tempted to work at Morris. Great place, friendly inviting staff.

I am sad that most places are geared towards spring. Because, as a horticulturist, I can't really take time to visit other gardens at their peak. Visited Jenkins, wonderful. Longwood actually made me depressed with its budget that I will never touch working at a place that pays thousands for a tent for one night, but doesn't understand what goes into the flora and art of horticulture in a public garden. I literally stopped dead in my tracks at their little room gardens, turned around, sat down, and almost cried. Envy is not pretty.
