Many More Things are Named Gandalf Than You Realize

You may remember earlier this week when I blogged about gandalf's blog. well, thanks to joey, there is another type of gandalf that I'm going to tell you about. gandalf, the music band. not to be confused with the three other bands named gandalf. I'm talking about this one:

It is very good. check it out in your free time. (If you live in the USA, all time is free time.) You will like it if you like wizards, lords of the rings, or lords of the rings 2.

A quick google search also proves that lots of people are naming cats gandalf. I masterminded a poll about this hot topic*. please do it, it is for my files.



*I used the term "hot topic" only as a means of generating more teen traffic to my blog.

Pepperoni

Today there was free pepperoni at work. This is important because it happened directly after I was daydreaming about pepperoni sandwiches. (cheese as the breads, pepperonies as the pepperoni)

also,
suggested reading: gandalf's blog. (there is a section called "Bits and Bobs" that is especially endearing)

Time Seeds

I wanted to plant thyme, to be funny, but the seed store did not have thyme seeds (note: try to invent Time Seeds), so instead I planted: sweet peppers, sugar snap peas (which is a type of peas), basil, lavender, snapdragons, and salad, and they are currently crowded around my two windows waiting, like little CEOs waiting for an elevator, for the sun that is going to come tomorrow. I made several contraptions involving hooks, twine, peanut butter jars, laughing gas, flame-throwers, pulleys, ...you know. terrarium shit. you have to be creative when you only have two windows and 13 plants, seven of which are still in nature's womb (home depot soil).

It looks like a dirt collection, which I am ok with because that seems like kind of a quirky and charming thing to collect. And speaking of collections, please let me know ASAP if anyone has found a place to buy tiny plastic cats.
