And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

85% of flowering plants are not only bisexual but hermaphroditic, i.e. their flowers have both male and female parts.

Well damn, I've been thinking of plant sex completely wrong for years. I always thought flowers:fruit::testes:ovaries. But apparently plants are kinkier than I thought.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Someone called into work to ask if we were hiring, because if we were, she had an excellent candidate to recommend to us! 1) We are not hiring. 2) If we were, we'd like for that person to submit their own resume and request for hire (rather than someone using their limited influence on the city counsel to bully us into hiring a buddy of theirs), and 3) your recommendation based on the fact that she is a Tree Steward means that she needs to seek volunteer hours to maintain that status, thusly, we would love to have her work for us for free! --immediate hangup.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I have found my sweet potato!

Sadly, I can't remember where I bought it, but what I baked right now is exactly the light yellow/light green sweet potato we eat in Jamaica. And if I can bake it, this means I can find it and make pudding, and where there is pudding, there is heaven.

I just need to remember where I bought it, and what it was called.

And stuff.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

OH MY GOD my husband has been on the phone with the Houston realtor for like an hour. STOP TALKING, people.

If nothing else, I have to leave the house in 15 minutes. But the realtor is very circular, and husband is very detail-oriented and picky, so it's leading to insanely long, repetitious conversations.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

ita ! In the U.S. aren't these called white sweet potatoes? Maybe I misremember.

I mean, as far as I'm concerned, we go down there, we look at a bunch of houses, we buy one. I am not picky, and I have limited patience for contingencies.

Ahrg. My bank just send me a revised 1098 for my mortgage. Looking at it, they had just omitted my PMI annual payment, but the rest of the numbers were the same, and when I did my taxes, I got the PMI from another statement. So I think I am good. But I knew the form was different from last. Besides, the IRS already gave me my money back...

I am the last person to be able to answer that question. I know that's not what they were called in the store, and they also weren't called Bonita, which is the name I was looking out for (they match the images of Bonita on the web, but if the store's not calling them that, it's a little more difficult to ask for them by name).
