Tis' the Season

09/09/09

That's the date today! I am no numerologist or anything, and I am usually the one saying, 'so what?'... but isn't that kinda cool? I found this about it on MSN.

Shoes!

For lack of anything better to blog... Aren't these cute? They were only 1980 yen!! Move a decimal point over two spaces, and you have it, roughly, in US dollars.

I dreamed about Blogit last night. Took it as a sign to get something up here as soon as possible! So here are my rainy season photos. Taken from the veranda as usual.

Thank you for blooming!

That is what I said to this flower as I watered it this morning. This is only the second time in six years that this flower has bloomed. Looks like there are three other buds! Actually it flowers green usually so that it is difficult to tell leaf from flower. As I rushed around getting ready for... Sign in to see full entry.
