The Patent Dragon's Zone of Soul Retraction

Yay! Good news for a change!

8 - Grow my own vegetables/fruit

And here they are...



DELICIOUS (and life-size, too). And make no mistake, there are more to come!

I really don't want to dwell on the bedroom train-wreck - okay, maybe it's not that bad (or at least I really hope it isn't...), but every time you think you've got any leakages addressed...

Hey, I have two strawberries almost ripe - if they're ready by next weekend I can *gasp* count a Mission 101 Task as completed (and this month wouldn't be a total blow-out)!

AVENGERS Countdown... So, taking my own advice, I'm watching IRON MAN again as part of the run-up to AVENGERS. Five movies in less than (oh, holy crap) three weeks - THAT I can do, given the crappy state of TV these days.

"Summer Break" News... So, we manage to find holiday-time overlapping with one of the biggest events in the country - and the complications just double as a result. Five days just became maybe not quite enough. Oh and there may be something Star Trek-related on in those parts in September. *sighs* Talk about p!$$-poor timing.

Mission 101 News... I can definitely count Task 8

8- Grow my own vegetables

as "under way", 'cause I just planted three strawberry plants in my own "mini-garden" - I can almost small that good honest dirt right now - and YES, I DO know strawberries are fruit, but they still count. The general idea is the same, dammit.
