I trudged out into the back yard just now to hang up the bird feeder and gauge the weather (judging from the temperature inside my house, it’s a chilly 60 or so outside; this is hardly the case), and scope out the flowerbeds, which have yet to get any real attention from me, as I am waiting on my mom to come to town to tell me what to do with which bed. I just get paralyzed when trying to plan anything beyond container plants.<\/p>\n
I noticed some weird little spindly weed in the flowerbed behind the back bank of windows, and went to yank it up. As soon as I grabbed it, it shot a dozen seeds at me \u2014 PINGPINGPINGPINGPING!!<\/I> \u2014 and because I was groggy and still headachey and not exactly sure what had happened \u2014 did a plant just shoot seeds at me?<\/i> \u2014 and I felt paranoid for thinking I was under attack, I grabbed its identical neighbor weed as a control group. And that thing sure as shit shot the same amount of little yellow seeds at me.<\/p>\n
I brushed myself off and came inside, leaving those damn things in the ground. <\/p>\n
