New Plant, and Home Renos
I bought another plant on Saturday. I was looking for a regular plain green Sansevieria (Snake Plant) and they happened to have some at Home depot. They had both the yellow stripe version (Laurentii), and the plain green, but I'm not a big fan of the yellow variety. They're beautiful plants, and the yellow is fun, and different than what you see on ( Read more... ) -
Plant ~HAUL!~
So I went from wanting a few more house plants to add a bit more variety to my collection, to having an abundance of them. I happened to check some local auctions and there just happened to be one with a bunch of plants in one lot. There were a few other lots, but those only had 2-3 plants in them and they were larger (a big schefflera aka umbrella ( Read more... ) -
House Plant Woes
So due to some kind of mental imbalance that I surely suffer from, I tend to obsess over one thing or another for short periods of time, and then eventually move on to something else. My CURRENT obsession is to hoard more house plants. This post is mostly just for me to both share, and a bit to vent ( Read more... ) -
Stereo
So some of you might know that I bought a fancy stereo system not too long ago (end of 2014?) This is not a new system, it's actually almost as old as I am (it's from the 1980s, 1986 to be precise).

First Finger Position (Violin)
So I'm pretty comfortable playing open strings now on the violin, and I've started to learn 'first finger' notes. Open strings are G D A E, and first finger notes are A E B F. I'm also having to re-learn the music notes in "letter" format, since all throughout school we learned them as "do, re, mi..." and apparently no one else commonly uses that ( Read more... ) -
The Violin
So I decided I would try learning the violin, and since today is the very first time I touch bow to strings, I would write a quick post to mark the occasion ( Read more... ) -

So Many Homos - I Threw My Back Out Again - & Roadwork
There seems to have been a torrent of YouTube "Coming Out" videos lately, several of which have been by high-profile content creators. One of the most shocking to see was Shane Dawson's latest video, where he explains his struggles with bisexuality. It's a truly honest and raw coming out story, and in it he explains how it would be so much easier ( Read more... ) -
Christmas Dinner
I'm mainly posting this "for future reference" but since it won't be private, I'll try to make it... cohesive? legible?... something like that ( Read more... ) -
Harry Potter
So recently, I've been in a "reading mood" and I've decided to finally read the Harry Potter series. As I'm reading them, I'm also re-watching the movies. I just finished the third film, which is prompting me to write this post ( Read more... )
