One of the hardest thing for me when starting stuff from seeds is keeping track of what’s planted where. The few times I’ve done this before, about two weeks after I’ve started, I’ve lost the labels. I’ve tried the popsicle stick this, I’ve tried keeping the seed packets in the sides of the flats, and

Because I have no will power whatsoever, I couldn’t just order annual seeds, now could I? Do I even have room for more perennials in my garden? I must. It’s huge. Surely I can find space for hundreds of more plants. Right? Right. To make matters worse, these aren’t all perennials, even. I was just

Two days later, and the things feel the same. Global Crossing sent me my IPs. An 8. I wrote back that I’m hosting 11 domains (true). Trying to live with 6 usable IPs would not be fun. Fourteen is minimal with one per domain, a router and a second nameserver. The same email promised that

Somehow I fear that may be a popular entry title. First, I just a call from somebody at Global Crossing. He wanted to introduce himself and confirm the information that the last caller had gotten from me, before sending it on to Verizon to actually try to get me a connection. Huh? What? You mean
