listening to music while watching snow fall is PEAK and a blessing on my houseplants

 the other thing I'll say is that a lot of people talk about putting curses on others

"I curse you for this. I curse you for that. Curse your mule and curse your crops and curse curse curse."

But I think a lot of people forget about the inverse curse--aka a blessing.

And recently I bestowed a blessing upon my dear sweet precious plant babies. And by that I mean I bought plant food from Lowe's. And so now all that stuff plants crave like nitrogen and...urea(?) will be absorbed into their bloodstream and give them big huge hulking flower muscles. Or something.

The craziest thing about plant food is that you put a teaspoon of the stuff into a gallon of water--I don't have many things in my apartment that can hold a measurable gallon of water so I had to go use the 'neath-the-sink bucket.

Anyway here is my blessing to my plants:

To all my green children, you are the greatest and most powerful plants to ever exist. You are exotic and wild and free and untameable. You are like bird whispers. You are like the dreams of a horse. You are entangled in many elaborate intrigues and plots and from all of them you will emerge victorious and your enemies squashed, tarnished, and depleted. Not a single star in the whole night sky shines as brightly as any of you, and within each of you lies entire universes that contain even better versions of Shakespeare and Lucille Ball. Arrivederci and ciao Bella per sempre per sempre per sempre
