pretty flowers

So, I'm here at the Botanical gardens, about to write out a cover letter for a job (or 2) that I probably won't get an interview for. I could do some research. I may do some research. But really, i just want to hang out in teh rain forrest display and breath well there's a lot of oxygen in there. I'm considering buying an orchid or 2, but i understand that they're like ridiculously hard to take care of. And since I'd probably just give it away, I don't know if its a good idea to buy a flower for someone that will almost certainly die. So i can't decide. we shall see.

Anyway, its really nice here. My only small reservation is that there are a ton of people around. As with most things, I only ever want to share them with a few other people. I don't like having to fight my way to see a flower. but whatever. it was really pretty. My camera died when i was about 2/3 of hte way thru the exhibit, but i got some good pictures. including one of a plant called a pachypodium. I thought andrew would like that. Its a Pachy-podium, or elephant's foot. Love the name. love it. anyway, I should finish up this cover letter
