a plant, the moon and some joy

Out plant shopping today with Mom and Gran, I bought the most fantastic plant. It's called Adam's Needle and it is a yucca that is apparently cold hardy to -30. It gets tall white spikes of fragrant flowers and it looks totally tropical. Yes, we're back to zone denial. We were out shopping and riding around for a long time, it was pretty cool. So long that I had just enough time to have dinner before going out to Kung Fu. Kung Fu was basics, sparring drills, then in black belt it was chi-gung, sahmsing and partner stretches again.

On the way home, the full moon was rising like a bitch. So like the total fool I am, I had to pull over to the side of the road and get pics. Me, in a freaking corn field (or wheat or whatever the hell it was,) taking pictures of the rising moon. ( Worth it, y/y? )

I made it home in just enough time to see the season finale of House.

OMG! It was so typically tragic and yet I teared up like a little bitch. I'm sad the season is over, but wtf, there were hardly any episodes this season anyway. I liked the sneaky little Vote For Change '08 sticker they had on the wall. ^_^

Ummm, I got asked to join a dance group, and I think I know where-and whom and what--I want to teach. I just have to see if it's doable. Wish me luck. In the meantime, I can't tell you which gives me more glee: knowing that at The Place I No Longer Have To Be, persons who made scumtastic moves will be scrambling again, or the simple fact that I DO NOT HAVE TO BE A PART OF IT EVER AGAIN. I thought I'd be sad, bored, and I thought I'd miss it a little. Yet every morning I don't have to be there, I wake up and heave a huge sigh of relief, and I feel so good it hardly fits into words. I can't even imagine how I was dealing with it now that I no longer have to. It's hard to explain.

Well, there ya go, enough babble from me today. ^_^
