frustrating

people. especially people with a need to steal plants or knock them over or maybe place them under a table where they can't get sun JUST for the hell of it. P believes it's our neighborhood--i did find a cigarette butt in my lavender. I guess I don't want to think ill of people--that whomever did this might enjoy turning over a pot. I only hope that the thief is growing my butterfly flower plant for him or herself. I would feel better knowing that.

luckily my tomato plants have been fed worm poo and water and are now standing up and one is really tall and his stem is really thick.

and my peppermint is a green shoot of hope.

and then, really, the flowering catalpa is beginning to show.

they make me feel better in face of dudes calling dudes fucking faggots and people pulling flowers out of flower boxes and people throwing their trash everywhere.
