learn how to not kill my houseplants

I received a new plant as an early housewarming present. I’ve named it Emily. It’s a succulant (sp?) so I have to learn about watering them and such…I’ve heard they don’t take a lot of water.

This baby was in the Costume Dept. office of Premonition when I started. It had hardly any soil in the pot, and was one lonely little sprout struggling for life. All I could do was water it, and when we started shooting, I wasn’t even there every day (I think our seamstress kept watering it for me, though I never asked her to). When the show ended, I took it home and added some soil, and it has flourished in my kitchen window. I think it might be ready for repotting soon so it can get even bigger. Any advice?
