Shiraishi and I went to the Poison Garden before Wimbledon started which was quite interesting. It gave me some ideas on plants I would like to grow at home. It'll be something to research on the way home. Though, I might need to look at getting a bigger place at this rate. One with room for a large garden or greenhouse and then a good sized room with ventilation for art. Even better if I could have a clay court in the backyard... I guess that's something else to look at.

My sister sent some pictures so I could make sure my flowers and plants were doing well in my absence. I'm a bit upset though as one of my flowers blossomed while I wasn't there. I told Mika to carefully clip that one to give to our mom. Of course, I provided instructions to make sure it stayed alive for at least a couple of weeks. Mostly because I want to see it in person.

The quarterfinals are tomorrow. I feel good, but who knows how it will go? I've been surprised by a few of the early round losses.
