So what does anyone know about lawn care? If I use some sort of weed and seed product and I killing baby dolphins with all my pollutants? Does Miracle Gro really make things grow miraculously (and the right things)? I would like to do this myself and not pay TruGreen to come out with a tank truck of unmentionable stuff to put on my lawn. I would also like the pride of showing off my lawn to people. Right now it's a petri dish for dandilions.
I'm am a big winner! We ventured on a training trip on the eastern shore yesterday and since we were soooo close to Atlantic City, we decided to stay overnight there instead of somewhere in PeanutLand, USA. We assumed that on a Wednesday it would be pretty slow, but apparently the old people have no schedule restrictions. Harrahs was packed. I had gotten approximately 4 hours of sleep the night before so I was feeling worn out. But we had reservations at 'Cesca (some Italian restaurant) and I was starving. My food was soooo good. I thought to myself, "oh, this will be a good end to my day. I'm too tired to gamble." I'm silly that way.
So I got out a little bit of play money ... and by 10:45pm had managed to throw most of it in the street. I decided to go upstairs and call the Puddin' before he went to bed. The error of my ways was lying down on the bed to talk to him. Suddenly I was very sleepy. So I toyed with the idea of going to bed, but was determined to throw that last bit of money in the street. I literally stumbled my way back downstairs, all droopy eyed and yawning. I may as well have been in sweatpants and slippers I was so zoned out.
But my persistance paid off this time! I turned my last few dollars into winning back all my money and more than doubling it. Best 45 minutes of desperately needed sleep I ever lost. I must still be excited about my winnings because I don't really feel sleepy. Ask me again this afternoon, though.
I think with my new winnings I can upgrade from the 10x12 shed to the 10x14. Woohoo! Free storage!
It is 2:30 and I'm just now thinking about the possibility of finding some lunch. I have a can of soup here, but no can opener. I think it may be a trip to Subway for me. I have been using two machines all morning to troubleshoot two broken servers at the same time. The third monitor has been for the other occasional crisis that pops up. I feel like some sort of bizarre 6 armed monster typing all over the desk. No wonder my wrists hurt. And apparently I don't have a "pissed off" LJ icon. We'll have to do with devious Bender for the moment. I suppose that is a good thing and speaks well of me that I have yet to need a pissy icon. Ah, well.
