Lawn Mowers

I mowed the grass today at work. And guess what? Lawn mowers-- self propelled push mowers-- are the one appliance I do not like. Because half the time I forget that I had my hand on the accelerator and I would end up running behind this lawn mower.. I must have been a sight. And one time all I was doing was holding down the accelerator and not the blade and I wasn't mowing a dang thing. I was ticked that time. But it was some hard work having to heave that thing around and go where I wanted it to go. At least I can mow a lawn but it's not my favorite job in the world to do. I prefer weed whacking because I can see my hard work in about 30 seconds or less. Mowing takes a while. Anyway.. I was hot as mess because I had a sunburn already and I was under the relentless sun sweating and afraid I would pass out from heat suffocation as I call it. Law, I'm surprised I didn't just pass out on the street from all that heaving and lifting around. But I'll be sure to get some muscles and an arm workout from today.

Mom comes on Saturday at noon. Her plane is getting earlier than it was supposed to so that is good.

Oh, and let me tell you about this movie I was going to watch. The Fourth Kind. About Alien encounters and this doctor taped all of her interviews with her clients and apparently there is live footage of these alien abductions/encounters. Anyway, I watched 30 seconds and this horrible feeling came over me and I turned off the TV. Then I thought the real doctor woman who looked like an alien would end up showing up in my kitchen (heck, I don't even know if she's dead!) But the feeling freaked me out enough that I took the movie back to the Mailbox and shipped it back off to Netflix. And the door between my kitchen and the back bedrooms shut when the TV was off so I thought some evil spirit was in my house but it was my roommate going to the bathroom. I had no idea she was even here. I screamed WOO! out loud. Law have mercy, I can't be takin that mess. My anxiety will run away with me. Shoot.
