Whining. And Thesis Stuff. Whee! :-)
Took my shovel out again today.
Dug up a squash plot (very small - about four square feet, maybe?) and planted eight squash seeds:
1 pumpkin
2 carnival
3 hubbard
2 butternut (I think)
Also planted hollyhocks and lupins (seeds) around the house-near perifery of the back yard (did that make any sense?), so hopefully those will all grow.
Along the side, by the driveway, I planted more hollyhocks and some columbines.
At the front I planted giant marrigolds and brown-eyed-susans plus some Royal Burgundy bush-beans (edible! yay!) in the front garden plots. :-)
So hopefully that will all work out beautifully. :-)
In other news: I appear to have come to a conclusion.
Ami_B mentioned that Algonquin has a horticulture program and my immediate reaction was "I don't wanna go back to school". I think, perhaps, my brain is trying to tell me something. :-)
<*sigh*>
See, at my brother's grad, I was feeling all "Oh, I want that". But the thing is, I want the prestige of the degree. Not the work it takes to get it.
Yeah, I know. Lazy-assed me. Deal. :-P
So...
This may be the death knell of the MA. Alas.
But whatever.
Anyway.
That's my thought for the moment. (It feels really wierd to say that. I mean I've been out of school for almost nine months now, and I still feel really indecisive about this *dispite* little wake-up calls like this one where it becomes *quite* clear that I don't want to go back... I really don't get myself sometimes...)
:-P
Anyway.
Snark-snarkity-snark-snark.
I am stiff and sore (backs of thighs + hands, especially the right one), due to the gardening. I think I need a soothing bath or something tonight. :-)
I'm off to get myself some dinner. :-)
