Fears man...fears.

Let's suppose you knew a person. And this person went through a phase where they were very into LSD. Said person had a particular phobia that they ONLY had when tripping. (note: "Tripping" used to ONLY mean enjoying the long-term effects of a hallucinogenic drug. I do NOT mean the current definition, which seems to mean something like visibly angry or upset. I only use "Tripping" to mean the former. There are plenty of other words to indicate the latter.) They were afraid of plants. Especially hanging plants. But any plant they weren't keeping an eye on. This person was sure they were coming to get him/her.

Let's suppose that this person has been looking back fondly on that part of their youth. And that they were sorta creepy to begin with. And that these are one of those things that are just plain wicked awesome. Can you think of any reason why this person shouldn't save up to buyTHIS as a pressie for the self? Because I am somehow privy to the scoop that they are really, really thinking about it. They miss having plants.

How super badass is this:


Awesome, right?
It also comes with a cat-shielding apparatus:



In other news, we watched Hellboy 2 today. It was pretty good. We were going to have fish and salad for dinner, but the whitefish I got at Meijer had a zillion pin bones in it and was pretty hacked up. Sad. I'm off work until Saturday (my third Saturday this month though, Ew). Plan to post new ep of A Stabbing for Sadie tomorrow and get a ton of writing done. Nightmare Before Christmas on Blu Ray also on the horizon for the week.

You older generation just don't understand our hip lingo!

Hey, I think lingo is gnarly and I totally grok it.

I know, right?

I've been wanting some carnivorous plants for some time now.

What are those thing? Are they from earth? They aren't carnivorous enough that they are going to eat your cats are they?

those things

It's five or six different carnivorous plants, flytraps and pitchers and a couple other things. Frankly, I think I'm long overdue for some plants that eat meat. ;-]
