thistlechaserWhile I was away for ten days, I was worried my plants would die. I bought a self-watering system, but it was basically hoses and water bottles, so I worried I'd come home to dead plants.
Instead my plants sent me a message: STAY AWAY! They grew a ton while I was gone, so big and thick.
Everything got so big! On the far left are the sunflowers (already starting to bloom but not even two feet tall yet -- odd!), close up in the round pot is the thyme (which originally looked like these little sicky sprouts), in the back is basil and chives and parsley -- all of them so lush!, and on the far right is some kind of flower (the empty pot next to it never had anything in it).
Oddly, my basil seedlings all died a fast, harsh death, but the ones I grew from a seed are growing like weeds.
The flowers all look a little ratty (I think something's eating them), but the herbs are amazing. I really have to figure out something to do with it all.
And this will be an even less organized post than I usually make, because OH MY GOD EEE is this the best show on TV ever or the best show on TV ever?
They took Lin Beifong's bending away! DDDDDDDDDDDDD: I swear, that made my chest hurt in RL. She was so strong and a badass and amazing at bending and gah! (Though I also hope they don't figure out how to return bending to people, it would feel cheap to me, plus having to learn to live without bending would make for an interesting storyline.)
And of course there'sZUKO General Iroh! While the voice didn't seem to really fit the character's age/size/shape, I DON'T CARE! OH MY GOD, ZUKO'S voice back! EEEEE!
I love Tenzin so very, very, very much. Perfect father or perfect father?
The one small part of the ep I didn't like was the whole love triangle thing. Shape up or ship out, Mako. I have zero interest in Asami, too.
So! Poll time!

Mako is definitely my least favorite right now...even under the bad guys because at least they are complicated characters...Mako just seems very 1D to me, when he isn't being a jerk.
Agreed. I hope (and think) this will change though. They wouldn't give the Mako name to someone who would stay like that. I bet he's going to make a Zuko-like trip and become a fan favorite.
