Today, I mowed my lawn for the first time since we moved into the new house. We’ve been here for almost four months, but our grass is pretty scrubby. It was thick in places, but I felt like I was mostly cutting weeds.
There are two things here that are potentially interesting:
1. I haven’t cut grass since I lived with my parents in high school about 15 years ago. I’ve been an apartment dweller in those years and haven’t had to worry about a lawn.
2. My parents were gracious enough to buy us a lawnmower as a house warming present. Thing is, it’s a corded electric mower. It’s what I wanted, but it takes some getting used to, having to mind the cord. So every time I have cord issues, I think to myself I could be having gas issues or starter issues or destroying the environment issues. And then I’m happy with my cord, even though I got some strange looks from people driving by.
In honor of my triumphant lawn mowing experience, I offer you this awesome mowing-related video for One Thing Tube tonight. Enjoy.
