garden vi

the garden is growing as fast as the fire on the hillsides are spreading. my favorite plant right now is this ivy whose leaves are shaped like butterflies. i need to remember to take a picture of it. work has been crazy-- i start working with a new dr at the va on thurs, and am interviewing to volunteer with a local shelter. i figure why not beef up that cv while i can? researching programs thoroughly has me excited to apply. this feels so much more right than the last round i did; i'll never put someone else's opinion above my own because they're a "professional" again. also, i've been pinching pennies in case i move to pdx or silverlake, in which case i will rent a sfd and get another dog. if i stay in san pedro i plan on setting up a gate and getting a third. i can't do anything in moderation, but hey!. cool.
