what did I do?

Last week after the first big snow of 2006, I did something galacticly stupid. Let me start out by saying I have never been very good with motorized lawn equipment. Remembering the time I mowed 25 lawns in one day with David Williams. It was my 1st professional lawn mowing experience... unknown to dave. I proceeded to scalp three lawns, have the wheels fall off the mower and dig a 3-foot long trench in old Mr.Sleepy's lawn. Needless to say I am far from a professional when it comes to lawn care.

Again last week I had another traumatizing experience. After learning to work the snowplow, (a rusty plow with an even rustier old suburban attached to it) I proceeded to use the snowblower. Having never used one before I was taking my new experience with joy, until I broke it. Somehow I managed to snowplow over two doormats, one that was all bristles and wires and the other that was now folded in half under the first one. After the snowplow shut it self off I realized my problem.


All was not lost however, the next day I rendered myself to a three hour mat-sectemy. I am happy to say the surgery was a success and the snow blower is now alive and well living its remaining days how all snow-blowers should... out of gas.
