there's much drama here about the landlord and whether he's going to use pesticides on the lawn, which, in all honesty, looks pretty bad. but jalex has a little garden out back and doesn't want the runoff to contaminate it. she already got them to spread bark dust in the backyard, though i think it just gave the weeds a soft space to hide under until they poke through, stronger than ever (and in my opinion, bark dust is no fun to spend time on. we spent almost an hour picking splinters out of sven's foot when he ill-advisedly walked out there w/o shoes). so i'm ambivalent: i want her to keep the garden, i don't care much about the front lawn which we never use, but wish we had the back lawn back.
