As a landscaper I've noticed many clients panicking because their irrigation company is still out a few weeks on turning on their irrigation. It's the beginning of May. Lawns are still green. Weeds are shooting up out of the topsoil at Lightspeed. Most of the plants in your garden, especially your big shrubs, are capable of surviving a little while without rain or direct watering, and there's probably more water in your soil than you think. Occasional deep watering, or typical rain levels in mid spring is enough. I've worked on many properties with no irrigation at all and while some plants go dormant due to summer drought, most of it will come back, and again it's only May 4th. Unless you're growing stuff from the jungle you're probably all good.

When I feel like I'm about to throw up, I can prevent it with a 99% success rate by laying down and breathing rapidly. I'm not sure why I started doing this, if it's just a basic human instinct, but I'm curious to see if anyone else does this. I'll typically do this for about 2-5 minutes until the nausea passes. If I stop too early I vomit.
