Save the world, little buddies!
Jan. 19th, 2007 05:49 pmI am worm-and-camera-enabled! I am absurdly pleased.
The camera, a HP R817, is currently charging at home. Well, the batteries, anyway. I'm hoping it'll be fully charged by the time I get home. Then, depending on A) how tired I am, and B) how excited I am about all the shiny new things I have, I might settle my worms into their new home. If I do, and I can get my camera to work, I shall mercilessly document every excruciating detail of the process. You have been warned.
Pousse-menu was stupidly hard to find, but it turns out I knew the street they were on (though I'd forgotten I knew it). The owner is a *flake*. More so than the twee girl at the eco-quartier who told me the worms "hang out" at the bottom of the composter. Thank goodness his partner seems to have a modicum of business sense (he wasn't there, sadly), or else I suspect they'd be bankrupt.
So I currently have 3/4 lb of worms in a big plastic jug, and several lbs of dirt/compost. I need to buy a newspaper on the way home to line the composter, and I'm in business.
w00t! Worms will soon be eating my garbage!
