Trala’s Tent

[Trala]

I didn't listen to the song because I don't like the singer's voice but I looked up the lyrics and it sounds like you were a hard drinker.

I don't drink because:

A. I'd rather eat my calories than drink them.
B. When I drink, I often end up in tears.
C. Or, throwing up.
D. Or, passed out and not knowing how I got there.
E. Or, drinking so much that I wanted to rip my head off the next day.

None of these things are pleasant. I much prefer cannabis. Cannabis makes me happy and funny (in my opinion) and more sociable without all the unpleasant alcohol effects.

Sounds like 5 great reasons not to

@Carcass

I was going to wait, sleep on it, and think it through more, but that’s not how I roll. I’m a think and say it sort of gal.

I got a PM whisper that what I considered to be playful teasing in your thread (re boxagate) has been read as serious. I respect you as a man, a father (you raise AWESOME sons), a grandfather and I simply adore you as a friend. The thought of hurting your feelings makes my heart hurt and I’m not even joking, well I hope it’s that otherwise I’m having a fucking heart attack LOLLLL

In all honesty I actually think your box is ingenious! My people tease each other, we laugh at ourselves and each other. If that banter has been misdirected or misinterpreted I am so so sorry. I would rather hurt me than hurt you.

I’m gonna stay out of your thread, fuck the places I can go in here are becoming smaller by the hour LOLLLINGG! I’ve said it before, I’m not here to outrage or upset people, even tho that’s what I seem to unknowingly do errrrrry. Fuckinggggg. Dayyyyy. Lol. I’m here to learn and maybe make a couple of friends on the way. Anyhoo I’m sorry if I upset you. Xo

@Mr. Krip

Just got a couple of pics for you in case you ever log back in. My orange tree is bursting with beautiful fragrant orange blossom blooms. I’m expecting quite the orchidary come spring. Red line is suggesting orchidary is not in fact a word. and to that I say it fucking should be! I think the secret ingredient to my orange tree success is dogs piss. That’s my old boy Billy doing his bit.

That middle one is a bridal veil. I grew that from a sprig the size of a matchstick. I’m so proud of it. My mulberry bush on the other hand is a fail. I think it’s too shady there, like weather not mood. I also think I have too much going on in that garden. I’m going to get into it and do some sorting and planting.

The bottom one is your dads memory plant.

Anyway I hope you are adjusting to a life without your dad‘s hugs and voice. And if you ever need a shoulder, you have mine

Right click on those fucking red lines and choose add to dictionary! It's a word now!

Not by me- I love that you kid me about the box- and actually...you're not wrong, it is pretty damn ugly!
just don't judge that book by its cover....

I’m gonna stay out of your thread,

I wish you wouldn't- you are 100% welcome in my journal, and that's not likely to ever change!

Omg I am so relieved!

SO. FUCKING. RELIEVED!

C Song I couldn't care less what box you grow in. In fact I wouldn't mind if you dug up my dead grandmother's coffin and wacked a light in that. I just like smiling, and teasing you every now and then made me big smile!

I just don't get why people choose to be outraged when they are faced with the option to a) laugh or b) be a miserable whinging pain in the arse. I just don't get it. Particularly when their outrage is by proxy.

I don't want the drama tbh. I can't be fucked with it know what I mean? I mean it when I say I'm not here for drama. I can just watch your grow magic in your thread and tease your arse off here!

Thanks Carcass. For just being you

Serious question tho.

Let's say I am going to the place orchids are, and I am going inside it how do I say that?

Eg

I walked inside the orchidary or I work in an apple orchidary, omg is it just orchid?

Do I walk or work in an orchid?

 

[Carcass]

I'll take a shot at it:
Orchidarium may refer to: A vivarium, specifically for the cultivation of orchids. An area in a park or botanical garden dedicated to orchids.

apples grow in an orchard....

Dude… whhhaaatttt?… But seriously if it takes a day and a half for a hen and a half a day to lay an egg and a half, how long does it take for a monkey with a wooden leg to kick all the seeds out of a dill pickle?

 

[Trala]

FYI I was today years old when I learned that while orchid and orchard look like the same word, they are in fact two very different things.

Prolly Stage 3 cringing right now.

Surely you’ve blown bubbles with the old Orchy bottle in your youth

Omg of my claims to fame, I could heat up and blow out the melted plastic bubble, whack in a stolen bit of hose, and it would be as airtight as an... look I’m going to abort from the next flow of words. The only airtight example I have would defs get me banned so I’ll just leave it as airtight. Cone made from Winnie blue silver and instant bong. LOLLLINGGG.

Did you ever aluminium soft drink can it when you didn’t have enough money for an orchy? I can remember bin diving for coke cans, dent can, earring out, holes punched. Instant pipe.

OMG bucket bongs. Lolllllll

To be a young teen again.... I’d literally rather eat my own eyeballs than live that again.

Hey it’s a bit of a gear change but I want to show you my gate. I totally designed it and painted it. As you know I put my plants out in the sun, and I got my partner to make a really big fence and gate. The gate looks most unfriendly it’s grey and just not pretty on the eye. I decided to soften it by creating a second fake gate. You can actually walk around it, but from the front yard it looks like a proper gate and gives off a pretty security vibe rather than an ugly grey one. Both gates are over 2 meters. I know it’s not perfect. It’s made from scrap wood, and I cut a plastic screen from Bunnings to make it blend to my seated area theme, I think it looks okay. To have a gate professionally made was going to cost 800 fucking dollars! I think that cost under $100.

I shouldn’t publicly bag my boyfriend but... I have to pick my battles, coz he does do so much good. But friends look, that drainpipe will go into a water tank which will be at the side of my house. And I have just let it’s temporary positioning go, but every time I look at it I think what kind of brain thinks that is a good temporary measure? Is he actually a deranged serial killer? Coz that thinking is just wrong. Like of the 101 possible solutions my brain could create, that is not even close to one.

Excuse the mess of the side there. A water tank and pavers will go in there once we save some more money.

 

[Carcass]

Well done, Trala!
That drainpipe looks like something I'd do

 

[Trala]

Thank you

I like it I think. I must say in my head it looked better. But I’m happy with the end result.

Omg every time I look at it I cant help but think WT absolute F?

HAPPY FATHERS DAY FROM AUSTRALIA

(For those who don’t know green and gold are our national colours)

Happy Fathers Day to all the fathers; to the mothers who have had to be fathers as well; to the men who took on the role of father when they fell in love with women with children to another. And a special Happy Fathers Day to those who have lost their dads. It is a bittersweet day for us.

I took this pic on my walk yesterday. Spring has definitely sprung here.

 

[Trala]

45 minutes to go. I’m so close to finishing this night shift and yet it feels sooooo farrrrrrrrr.

This plant smells like a high class hooker who hasn’t showered in 8 days. Once you get past the smell, she will take you straight to heaven. WillE is 100% a bad girl.

Halle smells like sunshine, mangoes and a sprinkle of your favourite perfume. She is such a lady. She is a vibrant green and her perfect bud laden tutu makes me smile daily. She is like a green ballerina. She is such a pretty plant. If she didn’t have nits she would be perfect.

This plant is a boss! I am totally monstercropping the Peyote Critical. I say it errrry time - this is my FAVOURITE way to grow. While they take more work, the reward of watching her take shape is just so satisfying. She needed so little training too. I’m really proud of her.
