Storm Costs Money
For those of you who deny that the natural state of the world involves sticking it to me at every possible moment, …Last night we had a wind storm. Not the worst wind storm we’ve had in the last 12 months, but it was pretty gusty. I thought I noticed a disturbance in the force, but I assumed it was just the wind being the wind, so I ignored it.
This morning I went outside to let the WND out for a pee and noticed that my patio table was not as upright as it usually was.
The table, the frame actually, was on it’s side and the glass top was scattered about my yard is 4 hundred-million pebble-sized pieces.
It get’s worse. The high winds spread a river of glass around to the side of my house, all along the side walkway, and out into the front yard.
It get’s worse. Thousands of tiny glass granules are tucked between the grass blades of my lawn and the only way to get them out is to pick them one at a time.
It get’s worse. Because my garage was being repaired, I could not keep my lawn mower in it. It’s been at my parents house, and therefore I have not been able to cut the lawn, so it is extra thick right now.
It get’s worse. I cannot cut the lawn until all the glass is recovered, lest I spray death chips about the neighborhood.
It get’s worse. This morning it was freezing cold and still windy, so I had to attempt to collect the glass (bit by bit) in awful conditions.
Naturally, this will cost me. Good thing I didn’t just spend over two grand to fix my garage, otherwise money would be really tight. Oh wait, …
So, if you see the world today, cockpunch him for me.
