Hey, this is Robert. Nathaniel left me at home while he went across the country. He's probably seen tons of beautiful vegetation, but I have to sit here and sulk next to this overgrown ficus tree. Bogus. I'm filing for emancipation when he returns. A big thanks to Colleen, his mom, for watering me while he wastes his summer picking goobers or whatever he does on the road. No love for the

There's no "I" in team, homework, hard work. But there is an "I" in "internet." It's ruining my life!

Please pray for/think about/send positive vibes in the general direction of those affected by the tornados this weekend. They were pretty intense. I do miss the sirens, though. They had a strange calming effect, perhaps because I knew that everyone in town was listening to them at the same time. We all heard the same song last night. xoxo, nathaniel

What happens when we die? Death has never been something to shake me. I can remember only one instance when I have been so devastated to learn someone has died. Maybe the whole thing is glorified in a way by romantic movies and the like. That is, when someone dies there are two ways to respond: you can deal with it, or you can pretend. In that instance we learn of someone's death, we make a

Day 2 of my life as a vegetable is going well. I was offered a meat pizza with meat on top yesterday, and instead of devouring it (as per usual), I passed it along to my house-mate Will, a semi-vegetarian. He used to be vegetarian, but has determined that one should not be so picky about free food, and thus submitted to his stomach's plight. I feel better after meals, too, as if I've eaten

Haley made some delicious stir fry tonight at Aaron's house. It had some lovely broccoli, carrots, green stuff, and a new favorite: fake-steak!I have recently decided to refrain from eating red meat for two reasons. The first of which is due to my stomach's horrible reception of said meat. Every time I consume such bloody muscle tissue, I feel slightly ill. Perhaps I'm carnivose-intolerant.

School has Oh-ficially commenced once again. So far, two wonderful things have happened. First, I discovered that good friend and esteemed blogmaster Matt Stowe and I share a Global Awareness class, which, contrary to my premonitions regarding its intrigue, will surely prove to be rivetting and worthwhile. Secondly, I attended a Government and Politics in the U.S. class for about 2 minutes

Today I awoke in time to see the sun out for a few hours. While some might call it fate or coincidence or divine providence, I call it my Uncle power washing the mold and moss off of his patio outside the window.

I got home last night to discover that it was apparently "girls night" at our house, so I promptly vacated my home. After running on 3 hours of sleep for nearly 2.5 days, I was ready to go to bed (note: we're talking 11pm!). However, because of my oppressive masculinity, I had to find a better place to dwell. Of course, I chose the school, because I'm a nerd, but felt too tired to do homework and

After an intense interrogation by yours truly, I was able to draw an answer from Will as to the whereabouts of the illusive carpet. As I suspected, he had taken it captive outside, and planned to beat it! Will claimed that the carpet was dirty, and that it needed a good beating. Hitler said the same thing about the Jews, Will. Shame on you. I arrested him immediately as he had admitted his

That's right. The area rug in the living room is gone! I stayed at the school all night with the intention of working on homework (much to my chagrin), and, upon returning home for a shower and change of clothes this morning, found something amiss: The rug in the living room had vanished. Not even a small sample of carpet remained. I searched high and low for the carpet-at-large, and my

Upon returning home after an exhausting and exciting Shanksgiving break, I found Robert Plant had been dipping into our food supply. That's right, once again I spotted Robert with his hand in the cookie jar, so to speak. This time the cookie jar took the form of Will's minestroni soup!

Robert is in need of some dirt, and fast! I'll have to go dig some up from the backyard, or else his lil' roots will freeze this winter. Heat is the only thing that will help this Zeppelin rise up. I think he is also very hungry; yesterday, Will caught him putting his hands into his Raisin Bran, at which point I realized plants may require more than water. It has been weeks since Robert has

I flew on American Airlines this weekend to San Antonio, TX for a scholarship conference, at which I led the music. I checked my guitar as baggage for the first time, and it safely made it to Texas with me.

But a lazy member of Led Zepplin gathers much dust! For all I know, Robert could be dead. I probably haven't given him a good water in a week. We did, however, feed him a little plant-power stick that looks similar to candy cigarettes, so maybe that's doing the trick.Robert had a great Halloween, though.

Robert Plant is growing up so quickly! He has almost grown 75% his original size, and is sprouting new vegetation in the nether-regions. I hope it's not genital warts, but in fact the sprouting of a new limb. Robert Plant loves the ladies...and their diseases. I gave Robert his own personal blogger profile on here, so that he can give you the inside scoop on plant life. So far, however, he

So there I was, well on my way to Chicago this Thursday, and I look over to my passenger seat and notice something amiss: I had forgotten Robert Plant!!! The mascot of the trip, Robert H. Plant, was stranded on the living room coffee table all weekend, while I had the best time ever with my wonderful friends! How selfish and forgetful of me. Needless to say, when I returned home, Robert was

Okay, so that's not a Robert Plant/Led Zeppelin lyric, but it's very pertinent to upcoming events. Robert said to me yesterday, "Well I got this guitarAnd I learned how to make it talkAnd my car's out backIf you're ready to take that long walkFrom your front porch to my front seatThe door's open but the ride it ain't freeAnd I know you're lonelyFor words that I ain't spokenBut tonight we'll be

We decided that Robert Plant was a little too uptight last night and gave him a swig of club soda/carbonated water. What a mistake! He stayed up all night singing "Itsy Bitsy Spider," of all things. I should've known! I'm trying to decide whether I'll bring him to Chicago with me or not. What do you think? Don't worry, I'll drive.xoxo,nathaniel

Ever since we got a couch (today), Robert has been sitting in the living room. He hasn't left the house in weeks, and I'm beginning to suspect that he's suffering from separation anxiety. After all, now that he's seen the picture of Julie's plant, he has been stricken with love-sickness. Poor guy. Anyway, while the rest of us deal with our longing pains, Robert likes to wallow. He's a

Robert Plant has a new girlfriend. It is my distinct pleasure to introduce you to her:Thanks to Julie of Nerdup.net for volunteering her plant for Project Robo-NADS (ROBert Needs A Date Soon).xoxo,nathaniel

Robert, Will, and I watched This is: Spinal Tap last night, and now all Robert talks about is "Our band is going to" this and "I can't wait until we tour" that and "All the girls are going to want our" yada yada. Don't tell him, but I doubt Robert Plant will ever make it in the world of rock n' roll. I tried to tell him that Led Zeppelin wouldn't fly, because there's already a band with a

A thank-you the size of a Zepplin goes out to Will and Jessica for taking care of Robert Plant this weekend! Thank you guys. I came home late this evening to find that Robert had been properly watered, entertained, and sun-bathed. This act of pure benevolence will not go unnoticed. Will and Jessica know that a seed in need is a seed indeed.Robert also has a new friend...a prehistoric friend,

The title was borrowed from a movie. Click it.Robert is currently under the care of Will and Jessica, as I have taken the weekend to watch over the home and seedlings of a different household. I'm sure he's having a great time right now...just sitting. Lately Robert's been kinda down, so Will put him in front of the window yesterday in his room, and that seemed to cheer him up...Robert was

Tonight we watched "The Hunt for Red October," and Robert seemed to enjoy most of the movie, except for the parts where Will had sat in front of him, thus obstructing his view of Sean Connery (on whom Jessica has a huge crush. How huge?We're talking "

Robert Plant, William, and I watched Mr. Bean last night. Robert supposed it would be a movie about legumes, but was sadly mistaken. He doesn't really have a sense of humor (at least he doesn't laugh at any of my jokes). I gave him a few roasted and salted sunflower seeds as consolation - we didn't have any real beans. WOW!!! This just in! I was surfing the Internet Movie Database,

I fed Robert a peanut butter M&M a couple days ago. I think it might have stunted his growth. I also added some dirt from outside into the mix, so he may have caught a disease from our yard. Only time will tell. He's probably thirsty by now; I haven't been home long enough in the past day or two to give him the attention he deserves. In other words, I have been home long enough to take care

Robert recently disclosed his disdain for the living room coffee table (probably because we don't have a couch...we should really get one, I feel). He tried to explain it to me - something about sunlight or water or something. I don't know; I feel like Robert expects too much from me already. He's pretty lazy. So I moved him into my bedroom the other day on top of my shelves. Unfortunately,

I discovered a rather ghastly wound on Robert's left tentacle (I think it's on his left...he's pretty uni-directional sometimes). It's a really soggy dark spot on the tip, where his hand or foot should be. I think we'll have to amputate before he gets a staff infection. Gross.Robert also had his first photo shoot today, and it went swimmingly. Once I get the film developed, I'll post some

That's right, folks. Soon this blogger will be made-over into a glamorous archive documenting the follies and foibles of my newest friend, Robert Plant. He's actually a 10" tall/long spider plant that I bought partly for charitable reasons, but mostly as a gesture of repentance to a young lady I recently offended. Problem: resolved! Anyway, I hope to get pictures of Robert up on the blog
