My Newest Victim

Hello. My name is Chelsea, and I kill plants.

No, really, I do. Well, not purposely, they just sort of wither and die as soon as they see me coming with my black thumb.

Let me display the evidence:

Yes, that's a plant.

Or, rather it was a plant.

....

Anyways, I thought I'd introduce you to my newest victim:

Meet Vincent. He's a harmless little orchid that I found at Wally World.

I've always had a thing for orchids - they're so pretty! But, unfortunately, they never like me as much as I like them.

Yeah, I'll spare you the details of what happened to my last orchid (shhh, don't tell Vincent about that!).

Isn't he all pretty sitting up all perky on our monstrosity of a fireplace? I love that he adds a fun splash of color to a very... um, brown, er, black, er, faux rock, er... of a backdrop. And maybe when it gets warm out I'll spray paint that purple pot to a color better suited to our living room.

Let's hope that he survives longer than all my other victims... er, plants. I'll give you an update on how he's doing... or not doing... sooner or later.

How's your thumb these days? Are you a "kill-them-just-by-looking-at-them" gardener like myself, or are you at the opposite end of the thumb-color-spectrum (like green instead of dead black)? Anyone else getting the Spring flower itch yet?
