Filbert!

I wonder how people have so many things to blog about. I never have much to say because nothing ever seems to happen. How do you do it? How do you come up with enough stuff to get on the computer and write it all down? Becasue nothing seems to happen coupled with my enjoyment of blogging I have no choice but to write a completely random blog about nothing in particular. This weeks topic--FILBERT!

Filbert...mighty mighty Filbert. He's the highlight of one of my boring weeks. A couple weeks ago I went and visited career services at my school to discuss finding me a job. I'm pretty sure I have the funniest career counselor at that school--Cherie. She's a riot! I enjoy visiting her--she's always good for a laugh. Well Cherie has this plant that sits on her desk--perfectly placed for optimal sunshine. Because of where the plant sits it tends to attack anyone who sits at Cherie's desk. I've been attacked by this plant before so one week I decided to embrace the plant and nip the attacking problem in the bud from the very get go. I didn't even give the plant a fighting chance. Before taking my seat at Cherie's desk I picked up the plant and set it on my lap where it stayed for the remainder of my visit. However, there was an instant bond between the two of us when the plant became incapacitated and was no longer able to attack my head. He kinda started to grow on me the longer I was there so eventually I had to name him! Filbert is his name and he's my little plant buddy. Any time I go visit career services I pick him up and craddle him in my arms. He's still a little out of control and if given the chance he will try and pollinate your head, and he may need to be rotated in the sun regularly but he's my Filbert and he's a keeper and a little bit of a cutie as far as a plant is concerned. Hahaha. My visits with Cheire are always enjoyable but with Filbert added to the mix one never knows what might just happen. You could end up wearing a fuzzy pink tiara on your head, with a banana sucker in your mouth, posing for a silly picture. It's totally unpredictable in that office I'm tellin' ya, but that's why I like it and keep going back.
