Watch out for the thorns - they're fond of clothing as well as my notes.. If I update something, you'll know about it.

Of plants and my supposed Black Thumb

Well, I always thought I had a black thumb.
I guess I don't. My Mom gave me a bunch of cuttings of this and that and the other (hoya, christmas cactus, some other cacti that I can't identify and a mini-hoya). Out of all this, I've only lost the mini-hoya, and the rest is doing well. Granted, some of it's 'doing well' in a glass, but that's because I lack pots and dirt for them.
This has been ongoing since we moved to this particular apartment almost a year ago, so only having lost one makes me happy. ^^
The hoya and one of the unidentified cacti recently landed in pots and were outside for a while (the Hoya got a little sunburned) but have recently been brought back inside. I pulled off the sunburned hoya leaf and stuffed it into the wet soil and - lo and behold - it's sprouting roots! Holy crap!
So .. .uh ... now what do I do with it? ^^;

In other news, I'm busybusy with classes, housework and other work, (and WoW has a chunk of my time too) and /still/ haven't found time to update ye olde website. Life is busy. Heh.
