lord, have mercy.
i mowed the grass again today, as i have to mow it twice a week ‘cos i planted grass seed in the fall and WHY IN THE NAME OF LOVE DID I DO THAT?!
right. so. mowing the lawn, and the grass is SO thick and green and lush that the mower stops because it’s clogged with think, lush, green grass clippings and dog shit. so i usually give it a good bang and shove (this is the dirtiest sounding paragraph, banging, mowing, dog shit.) and some clumps will fall off the bottom and i go on with my mowing.
well, today, just for shits ang giggles, after mowing, i turned the mower over to look at the bottom and holy cow, it looks like i’ve run over a moss covered Swamp Thing.
i honestly don’t know how the damn blade was even able to spin. and right now Dante is cringing and thinking, “you should know better than that!” because he’s the Lawnmower Man and has had the same mower for 18 years.
it looked ridiculous. so i took a broom handle and i dug out as much of the Moss Monster as i could. i think i carved out 8 pounds of grass and shit off the bottom of the mower. the dogs were all, “wow! what’s this?! thanks jaimie!” and i was all, “no! bad! stop! ew. GIT!”
i guess i learned something today.
