Summary haiku:
Chia Pet is full
of seeds, but won't grow trademark
lush clover coat.
As a gag gift, Kyle got me a Chia Pet for Christmas. His job got a big shipment of them in a press release, so he thought it would be funny to wrap one up and stick it under the tree.
Shaped like a kitten, this prize came with a bonus alarm clock, also a kitten.
Once we got to the new house, I was like, what the hell. Might as well grow her for novelty's sake. So, I followed the directions to a T. I kept her filled with water. The package said she'd start to show plant buds in 3-5 days. It has now been 8 days, and this is my Chia Pet:
Covered in seeds. Just like it was on days 1 through 7. So, not only are Chia Pets ugly, they don't grow for shit.
Like the plant version of Sea Monkeys. Sigh.

For some reason your chia pet made me sad! Ha!
Re your comment on my blog: I always liked Hal Holbrook, and I loved Dixie Carter on Designing Women. I was shocked to find out that she's a big time Republican so convincing was she as Julia Sugarbaker. That's very cool that you got to meet them.
As for Sydney, she had a starring role in that detective show Eyes which I really enjoyed but was short lived. Every Lifetime movie is a stinker but man, you turn one on and you're hooked!
Poor, sad Chia kitty.
I've always wanted a Chia Pet. Don't know why. They don't really have much purpose.
Maybe Archie scared the kitty so bad all it's Chia follicles fell out.
