bobcatmoranI've spent the last two days collecting antelope bitterbrush seed (and before you ask, it's to revegetate construction areas around the park. I can't tell you how many times I've said that). This involves going up to the shrubs with a bucket and a stick, whacking the plants with said stick, and catching in the bucket what falls off. It's not terribly taxing work, mentally, so my brain decided to occupy itself by coming up with horrible puns. "Bitterbrush seed collecting: Don't knock it unless you've tried it!" "We're really beating around the bush!" and so forth. I think we managed to scandalize at least one couple who drove by and gave us extremely dirty looks. I guess they thought we were some sort of bizarre variety of plant-abusing juvenile delinquents.
One of my housemates was very excited about yesterday, since it was "Christmas in July," a.k.a. July 25th. I'd never heard of this before. We commemorated the occasion by cutting out snowflakes and covertly sticking them on the windows of all the apartments while all of the sane people were asleep. ^_^
