i feel so masculine and shit. also, i mowed half the lawn while trying to burn off the gas before giving up because 87 with no shade makes for bad mowing. sure, that did take a chunk out of my machismo, but that's cool. i still have my penis. hooray for me.
 
You lucky bastard. 60 and raining here most of the day. I was in the shop assembling an engine until a while ago when I decided it was coffee break time.
 
Today I yelled at yet another agency worker. Bitch really loved that, but she played hard to get and went boo hooing to my boss. It was sunny 15 C outside and prolly 25 C inside.
 
i have no bitch yelling to mention. all i did was laugh at a fox squirrel because he kept freezing every time he came around the corner and saw me. yep.
 
I'd like that.
After I yelled at her she kept doing that- she'd come from behind the corner and freeze. But it was more of a rabbit/ headlights freeze.

Tomorrow I'm going to mow my front lawn. No oil to change, as it's electric mower.
My front lawn might be a size of a post stamp, but hopefully I'll feel manly too.
 
you'd almost have a tiny lawn with those damned electric mowers. the battery powered pos that's gathering cobwebs in the garage was evil. it often took me two days to three days to mow the lawn. the damned thing just couldn't handle even vaguely wet grass or any grass that was more than an inch tall without overheating and draining itself dry. some day i might smash that thing with the sledge just because i can.

Do it, do it!!! :D

I live in a "village", that's your UK kind of a village, in a terraced house- my front lawn is maybe 4x4 meters, back is not much bigger :rolleyes:
Not much grass at the back- due to clay soil, shade, kids, dog... Mainly dog, but you get it.
 
For some reason, mowing is my all-time favorite chore, and I'm the one who always takes care of the yard, which is biggish. Our old riding mower is a POS, so I'm stoked that we're getting a new one this weekend. It's kind of a big deal.

Also, to the OP... I just read one of your stories. Lit refuses to believe that I'm signed in, and I can't post a comment, so I just wanted to say...props. I really enjoyed it.
 
I got a lamb roast today that I'm going to put on the grill tomorrow while I cut the grass.

that's pretty much what most yards are like here minus the clay. i honestly don't why our yard is so much bigger than everyone else around here. one of the neighbor kids was actually impressed by the fact that we have an actual yard. poor kid.

i actually agree, but i like pushing the mower. it's like exercise, but with a point beyond just losing weight.

and thank you. out of curiousity, which one did you read? a couple of them are quite bad.

Yeah, I get that. That's where the weed-eater comes in, for me.

Angela's Present. There was a whole lot about the characters' relationship that you nailed, IMO.
 
good. that's one of the good ones, if i may say myself.

and i hate weeding, but i think that's mainly because i only have a weed whip and that thing sucks. also, i suck at golf. there's a connection there.
 
I'll need a lawn mower when concrete sprouts grass.

No more lawn mowers for me, ever.

You should say so. It's good. Which is your favorite?

And what is a weed whip?
 
i don't really have a favorite, but i think i did a decent job with rebound, the angel across the hall and the guest. others too though i will warn you that some of the stuff i wrote before my last story are way too long and should have been edited. just don't read the young sisters. i was really fucked up when i wrote those and it shows.

and a weed whip is like a golf club, but instead of a club it has a blade. it's a great way to accidentally cut your cable, but it's a pain in the ass when it comes to hacking weeds.

The Angel Across the Hall...

My favorite so far. Really good.

I think I need a weed whip. I just have some trees and lawn furniture to trim around. The weed-eater feels sooo heavy after a while.
 
danke.

be warned: if you have small children that are bad at announcing themselves weed whips are a very dangerous thing. they are however great for when the dandelions pop up.
 
Mowing the grass, love doing it but never have the time anymore. Thank god I still have a son who lives at home and loves doing it too. We all hate trimming even though we have a gas powered string trimmer. Fortunately we are a good month from mowing the lawn here I think.

Pointless- park the weed wacker & get a gas trimmer. They only rip a little skin instead of removing a limb when ya get surprised.
 
Bought a new mower, self propelled to make it a bit easier, cut half my back yard on Sunday, now I gotta wait until the snow (that we got yesterday) melts to finish the job... :(
