anyone missing a sparkplug wrench?


i think i found it...
fucker.
i was out there trying to get shit down and in the middle of that - while at the shaw/bubbles lawn - i or rather my mower found a buried treasure in the lawn...a nice spark plug wrench. not good for much now but if you need one let me know. it wasn't enough to stop me from proceeding but it did stop the show for a second. or two.
today was certainly better for lawn cutting than yesterday, fer sure. one more tomorrow and i'll have a day off from the lawns. and now that i'm gonna be back at work-work, the juggling begins...the evening mowing begins.

i managed to get the stew made and it turned out pretty well. i had a little of it for lunch today between lawns. them root veggies sure is good. i sure made a lot, good thing i have a freezer and tupperware.

couple of dudes i sat near at the track...

i had made arrangements to meet marcy at the track tonight but just couldn't get myself back in a car so i hoped on corie's bike - that he lent me a while back that i should either buy or give back to him - and rode out to the pne and saw her. i even took a book since i am going through a reading frenzy right now - i go ages without reading and then i'll read a bunch of books back to back....then back to nothing...(i've read over the past while the new willy vlautin 'lean on pete', anthony bourdains's 'kitchen confidential', richard ford's 'a piece of my heart' and am in the middle of chuck klosterman's 'downtown owl'...)
ok.....so the track. i like it and i found out tonight they're gonna be having movie nights there starting next weekend with the breakfast club. you really should go...and when one rides all that way there's nothing left to do but go to la taqueria and eat like a champ. so i did.
and now, just because i can, i'm gonna extend a happy birthday greeting to a great gal, a fun human, fiona brown, who turned seven today and is already looking forward to eight. i hope you had a great day kid.

this car belongs to a friend of mine. i saw it the other day and wondered if it could possibly be hers...when i saw her today i asked her if it was...sure enough..she told me she had a lot of time on her hands...

now i'm gonna relax. and fall asleep on the couch.

Hey! That's my house!

The lawn (not pictured) sure looks great, though. Thanks.
