Recently Amanda Palmer made music history by crowd-funding her latest album (Theatre is Evil) on kickstarter. She exceeded her $100,000 goal by more than $1,000,000! She made an incredible album, with amazing kickstarter backer edition goodies and debuted at No. 10 on the Billboard 200 Chart. I couldn't help but mark my calendar for the Houston show as soon as I found out the venue.

Guerrilla Gardening is a green movement, spreading bountiful plant life in a sneak-attack like style. It can range from spreading seeds in desolate empty lots to planting flowers in those decorative, oversized pots in your apartment courtyard that never seem to actually facilitate plant life. There are even people who go as far as starting community gardens in abandoned spaces. One of the methods of guerrilla gardening is by using seed bombs, which are biodegradable clay clumps containing seeds that will germinate over time.

It has been raining here in Houston, for the past 8 days. It is pouring down today, and there is around 30% chance of storms for the next week. I’m going stir crazy to say the least; however I’ve managed to take advantage of the dreary ambiance brought on with the rain clouds and tall grass.
