You may remember this freakish plant from last semester:
I was hoping that I didn't miss it doing something spectacular over break. I didn't. It just got taller. A lot taller. And it put out a bunch more branches with what looks like buds on the end:
It was a fairly uneventful day. I finished my syllabus, and tidied up the office. The big excitement was that this went by my window every 5 minutes. I think it's the new Education City shuttle. Why it looks like a train ride at Chuck E Cheese I have no idea.
