shitty burgers and tax bills

what can i tell you?
the weather has stayed decent for what seems like days now. shocker. i've been back mowing and, frankly, there's nothing like it. i know it's hard to explain to those who've never needed a little bit of zen in their life, and maybe i don't really understand zen but, i sure love mowing. and maybe it could be anything...washing windows, laying carpet, paving stones, i dunno...but cutting grass is what does it for me. outside, exercise, the smell of cut grass, the sweat, the people who walk by and give me the knowing nod...the smell of gas in my car as i drive around...all of it. i may try and cut a lawn at lunch time tomorrow. just 'cause.
this looks cool. i'd like try it. the suits remind me of my friend chris crude who lives in an orange jumpsuit.
had to go and sign my personal taxes today - which is so wicked. i'm not sure how i made 1/3 of what i made the previous tax year and am paying twice as much in tax...i did forget, well not forget exactly, to buy any rrsps (due to the economic climate right now), but now i don't get the tax break and it's biting me in the ass....i saw some smart folks not buying this year and just kinda went along with it...oops.
not a great hockey weekend. beat 12-0 by a team that really shouldn't be in our league, or we shouldn't be in thiers or...anyhow...that was that. and then sunday we played one of our rivals, the vandals - who have one young fella who loves to stir it up...and then is always surprised when people want to deck him...he and i had a couple small 'issues' and then in the third period had another when i gave him a decent check along the boards. one he didn't like and made that point clear by punching me in the head...nice. well, old lyndon (or linda) cormack got kicked out of the game and is now suspended for three games...wicked.
as i write this the blackhawks are in the verge of knocking the flames out of the nhl playoffs and the giants are in kelowna looking to win game six and force a game seven..(ok..this took a while to write and the giants are out as are the flames....)
ok..i need some sleep...
