Introductions

Hello and welcome to my blog. I have recently been named Lemmy by the weird chic I'm staying with. I put up with it because she named me after Lemmy Kilmister. I'm sure she also thinks it's cute. At least she didn't go with "Lemony Snicket". That would have been unfortunate.

Great, she even has me punning now. Anyway...

I am a lemon tree...well, more of a stick at the moment, but I'll come back to that. You may be asking yourself, "How is a tree typing?" Don't think about it too hard, you might hurt yourself. I have many talents, typing is just one of them. I also play a mean bass and will kick your ass in chess.

Once upon a time I had leaves...even lemons...but that was a while ago. Now I'm running lean and mean, just my impressive 12" trunk and two branches. Crazy-Lady (let's call her C.L., I'm tired of typing that one out) gave me some awesome fertilizer yesterday so I'm thinking I may try to grow back the leaves, but you never know. I'm random.

I suppose I should explain why I'm with the chickie. Many moons ago I was living with a bunch of other cool plants and trees, just chillin' and photosynthesizing. Then one day this guy walked into my shop and the next thing I know I'm leaving through the front door, pot and all, and I've been hanging with him ever since.

He's pretty cool, likes his music loud and fast which is just my style, and takes pretty good care of me without being all mushy about it. Well, he's got a job out of town for the next 3 months so there was some question about what was going to happen with me. He'd started hanging out with this chic a few weeks before he got the news and one of them had the bright idea to have her take me in.

But it isn't all bad. She's found me a bright spot by the window. Her dumb cat leaves me alone, though sometimes shares my sunbeam. And she talks to me...it's not quite as pathetic when a girl chats me up. It's the dudes that can make me feel a little weird about it.

So that's my sitch. I decided it was time the world knew about the awesomeness that is me. Especially if C.L. kills me: Let the legend begin!
