All the plants Mike and I have received, have died. Why? Because we have such a brown-thumb when it comes to keeping plants alive.
One day we decided to go to Lowes to try the 'plant-thing' again. We bought 4 plants. 1 died almost 2 weeks after we got it...we let it sit in our kitchen - dead - it was a tree like plant. It stood upright with brown crunchy leaves on it for months. We finally threw it out when it started collecting spider webs.
One of the plants, we named "Butch". He survived for a few months, then we forgot about him, and he died. We couldn't revive him.
The third plant, has survived and is still living well in our kitchen. It's cute. I like it. It's been a long hard road trying to maintain it's livelyhood, but we've done it. There were good days and there were bad days. Days when we would come home to realize our plant was practically dead, b/c we had neglected it. We would water it and the next day it was good as new. I love that plant.
This plant below, I have on my desk at work. It makes me smile - b/c it's survived as long as the last plant above and has never wilted on me. The water bottle next to the plant is what I use to keep it alive. I water it once a week with a few squirts of water, and it's good to go. Even under the artificial lighting in my office. The mug makes me smile too...only b/c it's cute. :-)

I'm the same way. Heck, I usually forget to feed our fish. If it doesn't make noise, I'll forget about it. :)
