Ok, yard work season may have officially opened weeks ago, but not for me. I really dislike mowing my lawn. It’s a pain in the ass. A few of our neighbors spend a lot of time (and money) on their lawns. It’s frustrating for two reasons.

1. My lawn sucks. There is hardly any nice grass. It’s mostly the thick blade crab grass and whatever the hell will grow in sand. The few square inches of lawn that I have where nice grass actually grows is like the Amazon rain forest. 90% of my lawn grows 0.001 inches per month and the other 10% grows like 40 feet per week. And it’s thick, like the back hair of every shirtless idiot on COPS, so the lawn mower sometimes just stops when I am rolling over it.
2. I hate mowing!!! It sucks. It’s so fricking boring. I can think of about a hundred things I’d rather be doing, like playing the guitar, working on web projects, hacking the interwebs, getting shot in the face with a crossbow, whatever.

Also, Andria wanted a fountain for mother’s day. She insisted that we pick one up this weekend, citing the fact that “there will be none left next weekend”. She is happy with it, and apparently Olive LOVES it, so… a terrific gift indeed (pats self on back).

Anyway, It was actually a nice day, and you can probably tell by my skin tone that I don’t see much of the outdoors. If any good can come from this, I guess it is that it was a light workout, hopefully staving off a myocardial infarction for now.
