Thread Drift

[Zen]

This will be my second consecutive year of Not Much Summer.
Last year was spent selling my late mother's house, this year will be spent cleaning and selling mine.
And dental implants. Started that one this AM.
It's a fun filled extravaganza!

I see you left that other thread...I am so afraid of celery!

Don't be afraid!


Celery is good for you!

Do I see boobage of the Celery Queen?

That would be a great Halloween costume!

You know, I haven't been on this forum in several months, life and all. So I'm perusing the threads in the last couple of days because I don't know any better and I see this. In light of another thread...do we not have enough positive productive hours in our day where a) we even have this kind of time and b) we feel we have to take a black marker to a purposefully cut celery stalk, take a level of time to take a photograph and post it, in an attmept to make mockery of a poster "behind their backs" (ie. in a separate thread)? Maybe the poster and some other find this amusing but troll or not, this seems very juvenile. Have we regressed to high school since I last read this forum?

Sheesh.

Not everyone sees things the same way you do. I'm a graphic artist- I love humorous vintage and otherwise interesting or odd pictures, and I use them often when I write. That's part of who I am and I'm not about to change.

I was not 'mocking' anyone. Rather, (and apart from the other thread, believe it or not) I found the idea of a fellow member saying she was 'afraid of celery' to be a pretty funny notion in and of itself, and I used quirky pictures to allay her 'fear of celery'. I have a large collection of antique postcards from the early 1900's, and bizarre humorous 'vegetable people' was an ever popular theme in that era, so the whole idea of 'scary celery' is a natural for me. And I assure you no celery was sliced, diced, or magic-markered for my post.

I am very pro-vegetable. In fact, since you have suggested that I didn't spend my hours productively today, I'll have you know that I dedicated seven solid hours of my day today working with and promoting vegetables, including celery! I hand sowed hundreds of vegetable seeds of seventeen varieties in the ground for four hours straight this morning (my back will be killing me tomorrow), and this afternoon my husband and I played music amongst the vegetables for our local farmer's market for 3 hours, something we enjoy doing to give back to our community. We were paid with a bunch of beets and a bunch of scallions and lots of toddler dancing and smiles. I must confess here however that i *did* 'behead' the beets before storing them in my refrigerator this evening.
...But I saved the greens for my worm compost bin, thus hopefully redeeming myself somewhat amongst the vegetable kingdom.

Judge me and scold me if you like. I don't expect you to actually understand me.
