Maybe I'll Finish That... Naaah. | Monday, 2005 July 18 - 11:58 pm |
A typical evening for me. In Raleigh today, we had a torrential downpour in the early evening. Streets turned into rivers. Animals were lining up in twos. The sun became black as sackcloth. And my only thought was, "Oh good, this will be a good excuse not to mow the lawn." But when I got home, I discovered that it hadn't really rained much at all near my house. It's a conspiracy, I tell ya. So I mowed. I also pulled up about a thousand weeds, which means my lawn is now 3% less weedy than it used to be. And even though I dipped myself in a bath full of bug spray before going outside, I still got six mosquito bites... including one ON MY FACE. I'm the only person I know who gets bitten on the face. There's something about my body chemistry that seems to draw mosquitos towards me. I get twenty bites before anyone else gets a single one. Darn, if only women were like mosquitos. Or, if only I were like an attractive guy. I get bitten by other things. I think I got a tick bite on Saturday. And today I felt really tired, so now I'm worried that I have Lyme disease. If you find me wandering around on a street somewhere telling people that I'm Wyatt Sexton, please take me to a hospital. This evening was pretty mundane: blogging; eating a blue-cheese burger; watching "Hell's Kitchen" (poor Elsie got shafted tonight)... did I work on any of my half-finished projects? Um, no. I'm a slacker, what can I say. |

Sorry about your bugbites. I got two yellowjacket stings last week. Grumble. (and itch.) |

I hope you don't get Lyme disease, because my boss got it a few years ago and it truly sucks. It never rains at our house, either. Torrential rain a few miles away, but at our house, it's dry as a bone. You don't really need an excuse not to mow the lawn, it's eleventy billion degrees out, that's reason enough to stay in. |
