My office is located in the basement (well, actually we’re in a townhouse Lori converted part of the garage into a room for me before I moved in)

In traditional geek style, I have no natural light, just artificial light. In addition, I have cats. As a result, I am rather limited in terms of what sort of plants I can have.

I’ve been trying out a few different types of cactus, and apparently I am doing something right as I’ve got little baby cactus running around now!

Talk about my type of plant! The secret? Don’t do anything. Look, don’t touch, don’t water, don’t prune, zippo, zilch, nadda.

Perhaps not as much fun, but it does add a little something to the room.

One of the downsides to living in a townhouse is that you don’t really have much outdoor space of your own. Of course, the upside is that you don’t have to mow or water the lawn, shovel, or otherwise maintain outdoor space.

Lori did manage to create a little micro-garden though.
