It's early, but I was impatient. Last year I ordered a bunch of plants and then they sat around in their little pots for almost a month before I got them into the ground. I was too depressed to garden; it was cold and rainy. The basil died right after I transplanted it, so I had to get all my basil for pesto from the farmer's market last year.

Today, I planted the flower/vegetable garden--nasturtiums, marigolds, basil, pepper plants, lavender, strawberries, tomatoes. The asparagus is already in. Yeah, yeah, it's dropping down to 40 degrees tonight. So I'm a fool. I did put the tomatoes in wall-of-waters; I had THAT much sense.

I also planted the geraniums in the pots and the impatiens bed in the front. The impatiens I ordered from my church looked awful, with yellow, droopy leaves and speckled foliage. Overwatered, perhaps. We'll see if they recover after being in the ground for awhile.

I was hoping to plant the cutting flower seed bed by the garage and put in the perennials I'd ordered (astilbe, sedum, monarda/bee balm, etc.) for the pink garden on the south side of the house tomorrow, but it's supposed to rain for a good part of the day. Highly doubt I'll get the lawn cut, either.

I even did an aerobic workout today, too. And dropped Rob's prescriptions off at the pharmacy. I tell ya, I'm a saint.

I've been reading posts and thinking about whether I should comment on the whole [livejournal.com profile] pottersginny kerfluffle. Some of my best friends on LJ seem to be doing a fine job holding their own in the uproar and I wasn't at all sure that [livejournal.com profile] pottersginny wasn't simply a troll anyway. I didn't feel it was too necessary for me to pile on. [livejournal.com profile] msscribe, I'm sorry you were called such an awful slur. [livejournal.com profile] infinitus, [livejournal.com profile] praetorianguard, [livejournal.com profile] queerasjohn you done good fighting the good fight.

It really grieves me to see someone claiming such atrocious views sprang from their Christianity.

I'm intrigued by [livejournal.com profile] vanityfair's suggested solution here. What sayeth the lawyer, [livejournal.com profile] praetorianguard, or anyone else? (I'd ask [livejournal.com profile] heidi8, but she seems to be busy off having a baby.) Is this over the legal line?

Oh, and one more thing: [livejournal.com profile] infinitus, your bodacious ta-tas icon really rocks!
