matrixrefugeeBecause it's *that* time of the month, owch. I was having a good day at work today, for a change, but then I started feeling crampy and nauseous and achy all over. Ugh...
In other, much more pleasant news: went to the Boston Flower Show with my folks Tuesday night. The exhibits this year are a bit odd: they've gone a little crazy with wierd props, including a farm stand with dummies dressed like farm workers posed to look like they're puttering around (one guy's kneeling down picking cabbages, the other was loading a truck; says my dad, the folks with the exhibit have been re-posing the dummies so they're doing different things: the other day, one was laying under the truck like he was working on it); a gingerbread house on a beach at the edge of a woods (I know, very odd); a bunch of tropical-looking flowers with a pineapple on a bamboo chair... and a spruce tree (my dad calls it "an island Christmas"); a free-standing stone arch; a water garden with a rowboat floating in the middle of it and count 'em three waterfalls; a pen of live lambs with trees around them; a dressing table and a bed made of wire covered with moss; and for the gimmick centerpiece: an underwater scene with the prow of a boat sticking up from a bed of gravel surrounded by cactus and other plants set to look like seaweed and coral and such and the lighting for it flickers so that it looks like it's really underwater.
