I picked up a Begonia luxurians at the end of summer at Cistus for a few dollars, knowing it wouldn’t get to spend much time outside before it had to come in for the winter.
Greg discovered that the smaller desiccated leaves look like spiders and he thought it would be hilarious to leave one on the floor, call me into the room, then point it out.
Guys, if Alfred Hitchcock had been in the room with me he would’ve offered me a contract on the spot. I don’t think I’ve ever screamed like that before. I’m tempted to leave one on Greg’s pillow but I know that I’ll see it, forget what it is, and scare myself all over again.
The upshot is that I had to give a big presentation at work the next morning and I had not a drop of adrenaline left in my body to make me nervous. But still, revenge must happen. Ideas?
