What I'm Reading This Week #13

Friday is finally here!  Can I get a woot woot?!  (Cheers to those who actually did it.)  The week felt long to start but then before we knew it...blam!  Friday.  We had the countertop dude out to measure and template Tuesday.  The lady who made the appointment said it would be 2-3 weeks after so I'm hoping for sooner than later so I can FINALLY reveal the bathroom to you guys!  Kind of stinks though because we were told they would take the sink/faucet with them and that was a big fat no.  We were looking forward to getting that big azz box out of the house.  Soon enough I guess.   You may have noticed a little zhuzh to the site (probably more for those on laptops) but I figured it was time and I think they retired my previous theme anyway.  So it's a little minimalistic but there wasn't a ton to choose from on the free side so I took what I could get.  Enjoy. 😄 I sat down and did a spreadsheet of my seeds, when they were...

Hump Day Poll: Out of This World




Where’s the most surreal area you been to?

I would say we saw two on the same trip going to Devil's Tower Wyoming and Badlands National Park in South Dakota.  Neither are landscapes I'm particularly drawn to but it was cool to see the lines of sediment in the mountains at Badlands and it felt like you were a fish in a pet store with one of those faux backgrounds.  Same with Devil's Tower.  The rock doesn't even look real, even the closer you get to it and totally felt like a fish tank accessory again.  We were quite lucky though to see it with some snow on the ground and falling while we were there.  It made it extra special for us.  Not to mention it's prominently featured in Close Encounters of the Third Kind.

  1. The one that comes to mind is the Colosseum in Rome. It was surreal standing there looking down into the "pit" where the gladiators had their battles, and the Gate of Life where they would file in to fight, and the Gate of Death on the other side where the dead were carried out. I remember standing there and it felt like being transported in time and there was such an incredible heaviness that stayed with me for several days. I've never forgotten that feeling, realizing how much violence took place there.
