I thought the cactus had died over the winter, but it lives!

Hey - winter just ended! I can't take snow anymore.

... looks painful (well, cacti almost always is).

[low-delta.livejournal.com]

The bigger the spikes, the less painful they are, since you can avoid them more easily.

Spikes

Definitely a good "point".

I forgot to mention, a day or two after this, I was working by the cacti, and pulling the grass that had crossed over the line into the garden. I reached down into it, and felt something hard and sharp. It was a cluster of spikes that I had broken off of a previous dead cacti.

I have two of them sitting next to my monitor. Where, out of the corner of my eye, they are kinda creepy looking, like spiders.

Kind of bug-looking, as long as I don't look too hard.

Dangerous things out in your yard! (only when you don't where to walk, but it sounds significant).
