It May Be a Jungle Out There, But It's Also a Jungle in Here

Posted by Kim |

The company I work for is consolidating the rest of our office from two floors to one floor. Somehow they've figured out this means that there is a surplus of plants, so I now have planters on top of my cubicle walls with this vine type plant that is growing DOWN into my cubicle. The shoots are on top of my monitor and obscure at least half of my whiteboard.

The feeling of being a contestant on Survivor is now complete.

My cubicle is either in the path of some very serious electromagnetic emanations, or it is so awash in negative Chi that nothing will grow. Those bamboo things, with instructions to stick them in water and do nothing? Won't grow. The leaves turn yellow at the tips, then fall off, until all that's left is a barren bamboo stalk. Might as well throw an old pencil in a glass of water. It's embarrassing.

Mold does grow, however, but it's not that cheery.

I've already demonstrated my brown thumb previously on this blog (see entry "Hang on Little Tomato") so it's a good thing I don't have to take care of these plants. The company actually hires someone to look after them for us, even though I'd prefer that they fired the plant person and hired someone in IT to fix my damn database instead, but that's another rant.

I just noticed that one of the vines has a reddish flower growing out of a little pod-like item and suddenly I'm reminded of the 1978 movie Invasion of the Body Snatchers. I'm giving myself a daymare, here....
