In other news: inspired by Anna Garforth, I've been collecting various species of moss. I don't like the idea of using a blender to propagate it, as many "recipes" online call for, so we'll see if I can get it to grow without that. The method so far: quarter-sized moss pieces in sugar water. I might add buttermilk--we'll see. (Unless N throws them out the window.)
In other other news: I got a new computer at the office. Given that it's a shiny-shiny iMac, it makes me want to redecorate the office. I imagine a minimalist look (all papers, pens, etc. being put away) and having a few nice decorative things: a sheepskin rug, a single-stem white orchid, and a huge 4'x4' painting of a pastel sky with an eight inch wide white frame. I can do this fairly economically, especially if I make and frame the painting myself, but there are still several problems with doing this, most of them stemming from the fact that doing so would be very atypical behavior for someone in my office. It might be viewed as excessive or simply odd, and I might feel guilty for caring about my environment. In our office of five, nobody really has anything personal at their desks. Well...here's to change!
