Butterfly Bush in January

Butterfly Bush in January

My neighbor gave me a sickly, end-of-season-clearance start of butterfly bush the summer before last. I put it in the ground, thinking it wouldn’t last the winter. When spring came around, I couldn’t see any growth and assumed it had died off. Then sometime in mid-summer, it decided to rejoin the living. And now it WILL NOT DIE. Everything was encased in ice a few days ago, but this stupid plant is still putting out new leaves.

Foggy Day

Winter Trees

The temperature is rising, the ice is nearly gone, and now the weather folks are promising us severe thunderstorms. Joy! In the meantime, the warmer weather means it’s been foggy all day.

Do you know how hard it is to take photos of a perpetual motion machine?

The squirt bottle is for the cats, who are very bad and think that 2am is the perfect time to chase each other across my bed.

One of my coworkers had a pair of headphones stolen from her cubicle and another coworker’s desk was rifled through. And then this pair of cheesy CHiPS sunglasses showed up. So far, they haven’t been claimed, and as far as I know there have been no Cartman sightings.

Drama in the Sky

Today we had possibly the heaviest rain I’ve ever seen. It was ridiculous. At one point I looked out the window and it looked like pea soup fog, the rain and wind were so bad. So bad in fact that my camera couldn’t find a focus point. I got a short video of it, but it’s blurry.

And then the rain stopped and we were treated to this. Dramatic sky is dramatic.
