I couldn't make something like this up if I tried.

A few minutes ago, I was walking through my backyard to the blackberry bushes in the back corner. (Mmmm, freshly-picked blackberries.) I was looking down at the lawn as I walked, like I usually do, because I like to look for four-leafed clovers*.

I found, in the space of ten minutes, three four-leafed clovers. AND a five-leafed clover.

Y'know how you people occasionally like to gently tease me that I'm a cartoon? Sometimes I wonder.





*I have a knack for finding four-leafed clovers. I have a card (that stays in a journal for safekeeping) that is full of the assorted four-leafed clovers I've found over the past few years. But finding three in ten minutes AND a five-leafed clover is a little over-the-top, even for me.

not surprising. Not in your back yard.

also, I sent you email. you should really read it.

Well, our back yard does kind of beef up the chances, but I still haven't ever found a 4 leaf clover. Ever. In 42 years.

[staxxy.livejournal.com]

maybe she is getting your share too?

[stroppy-baggage.livejournal.com]

I have suggested this, but I would still like to find one myself.

Well, were you a cartoon... you'd probably look like this (http://public2.tektek.org/img/av/0808/d08/1626/186896.png) (clicky-link!).

Five? Wow.

Hee! Oh, that's a cute cartoon. (And why yes, I have an outfit that is eerily similar to that.)

Glad you like! The 'dollmaker' is here (http://www.tektek.org/dream/dream.php#) ('nother clicky link!).

I miss you guys. :(

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

Yeah, we need to hang out soon. I know you've been having a less-than-stellar time lately.

I have several patches of clover in my lawn in which I have yet to find a four-leaf clover. They remind me of you and your knack often. I hope there aren't any mutagens in your soil.

i'm fairly good at finding them, though i've never found so many in such a short time (my record is two in a half hour).

i found my first five-leaf clover this year. it is, of course, being preserved.

You? A cartoon? NEVER!

:-)

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

Hee!

That's impressive. I've found one, maybe two, but that's only because I looked when I was much younger. Now I'm the careless one who walks all over them when getting to class.

wow, thats a pretty neat trick. also, you were missed in tampa. it wasnt nearly as hot or sticky as we worried about.
