sci fi and more succulents

Succulent flower/alien growth

This week one of my succulents started sprouting what must surely be a flower, a bumpy rosette at the end of a long stalk. But I haven't been able to admire it really because every time I look at it, I think about that moment in Alien when that gross alien baby bursts from John Hurt's chest. A gross alien baby that looks somehow like my succulent flower.

...No? Maybe it's just me.

OMG...NOOOooo...I can't see it!!! LOL. This will be such a pretty little bloom!!! Interesting comparison though!

Maybe if you're lucky it will be the NICE version of the alien, and pull out a little hat and cane and start tap dancing like the one in Spaceballs. Heh.

hahahaha ew hahahaha
