J/K Really though, my garden is seriously kicking ass, and I'm proud of it!
I confess....I grew a "green thumb" in just one season.

I confess.... good for you, JB. I love messing around with plants too. (um, that sounds wrong maybe) But it's rewarding stuff, I think. Quite basic, hands in the soil and enjoying the (+/- free) little things.

I confess.... today I told someone at work how I felt being treated like a kiddo by him, disliking it and he reacted like he was offended. My boss wasn't there and he thought he could boss me around. (um, too big a words but....) So I said something like; you're not my boss and I do not take orders from you. I simply felt I did not have to take that crap from him.
Ok, he probably meant well but that 'tone' he chose.... I f*cking hate. I told him before.... I acknowledge you know more about growing, nurturing, lots of things concerning the reproduction of plants and I'm willing and motivated to learn but please do not treat as a kid.
He is a 'boss' for young folk with learning disabilities and probably does a fine job working with those youngsters but he said; 'ok, than don't come asking for advice from me anymore in the future' and I confess.... not at the moment but now (7/8 hours later) I feel a bit awkward about the whole thing.
I confess.... I'm in the process of learning to stick up for myself, trying to be a bit more assertive but such encounters still keeps me busy for days while knowing it was right to do so. Man, why do I worry so much?
