Randomness: The first lawn mowing project of the year

Got in the first mow today. Felt great, both because it was really necessary and because it meant it was actually sunny and warm.

 

My yard is looking like a future forest, thanks to all the freakin squirrels forgetting where they buried acorns.

 

Some lawnmowing tips for you:

1. Read this book: "American Green: The Obsessive Quest for the Perfect Lawn" by Ted Steinberg (more funny than it is preachy)

2. Get one of these:



3. Spend more time enjoying the (too rare) nice weather we get rather than mowing the lawn.

Happy spring and summer, everybody!

 

Those cows are too big, 2MCM. I want little 12-inch tall cows. I figure I have room for 10 of those, but only two if the bigger ones.

 

I normally hate mowing the lawn, but I hate washing cars even more.

Rather than get roped into washing my father's car, I mowed the entire one acre yard of our house today. Last year, I wouldn't have even tried it at 224 pounds. I had enough trouble mowing just the back of the house. Today, I got the entire yard done and I only got a little bit tired. That's what happens when you lose over 50 pounds.

I hate it, but it's such great exercise.

 

Florida lawns weeds laugh at the unpowered mower.

 

I WANT ONE FOR A PET!!!

 

That's one delicious pet.

 

Fuck my yard. That is all. My entire front yard, which utterly refuses to let grass seed take, is pissing me off more than anything besides my seemingly dead iPod and definitely dead work laptop.

Eat a dick suburban vision of greenery.

 

I WANT ONE FOR DINNER!!!

 

Would one even give enough meat to make one of your awesome burgers?

 

One cow, one burger!
