Sketch and Edit Buy Some Plants – sequel to “Get Some Flowers” (posted back in December if you're interested, scroll back a few pages and you'll find it)
E – “Why are we buying plants? I’m just going to kill them.”
S – “I have to get something to send to my friend. What kind of plant says ‘you’re gorgeous but I hate you for being such an jerk’?”
E – “Ohhh, him. Um, Poison Ivy?”
S – “You can’t buy that.”
E – “Venus Fly Trap.”
S – “Where would I get that?”
E – “Oh, a cactus!!”
S – “Sounds good.”
E – “You still haven’t told me the whole story about how you met.”
S – “What kind of cactus should I get him? I’m thinking one that looks extremely painful. Wearing gloves indoors doesn’t sound very sexy.”
E – “Nice segue there. I don’t know, ask an employee.”
S – “K, go look for a mediocre one.”
E – “Why, you want to ditch ‘Plant Man’ for an actual Plant Man?”
S – “Nope, I’m not looking for anyone. He’ll be just for you.”
E – “Really? Not looking? Things getting serious with ‘Vegetation Boy’ already?”
S – “Vegetation Boy?”
E – “I’m still working on the nickname. Oo, how about this really ugly flower?”
S – “It’s too green.”
E – “Plants are green. Deal with it.”
S – “I’m looking for something pink... unmasculine… or ugly… or painful. I don’t know, I haven’t decided yet… but not that one.”
E – “You’ve been spending too much time with me. You’re getting rambly.”
S – “It’s contagious.”
E – *picks up plant* “What about this one?”
S – “Too pretty.”
E – “I meant for us. It’ll look nice in the living room.”
S – “Since when are you Martha Stewart?”
E – “Hey, green is supposed to represent life and energy and we both need all of that we can get!”
S – “So if we have more green in the house we will have more energy?”
E – “Green is inspirational. It will help us to think more clearly.”
S – “That’s a load of crap. Where did you hear that?”
E – “I read it online.”
S – “Well there ya go.”
E – “Hey, there is a lot of useful stuff online.”
S – “And also a lot of crap.”
E – “Well how am I supposed to differentiate between what’s real and what’s crap?”
S – “Cook your chickens well?”
E – “What?”
S – “Got me.”
E – “Can we get a cactus for our house?”
S – “I don’t think that’s a good idea.”
E – “Why not, they’re hard to kill. I’d have to actually make an effort to kill it… Pour some pop on it… drop a few books…”
S – “Yes, but they’re also painful and you, klutz, are not careful.”
E – “C’mon mom! Please mom can I get a cactus? I promise to water it and feed it and take it on walks and make it watch HGTV so it can see its friends…”
S – “And…”
E – “And?”
S – “And…”
E – *mutters* “And I’ll wear gloves. I can make them look sexy.”
S – “You call me mom again I’ll kick your butt.”
E – “Been there, done that.”
Happy Birthday to my Twisted Sister. Dance it out.
