I Fought the Lawn and the Lawn Won

BAD... The Spring growing season hit quicker than I expected, and now my yard looks akin to a Wildlife Preserve (admittedly, the only animals on my property are birds and bunnies, but I digress).

WORSE... Whenever I want to mow my lawn, I have to borrow my Brother's truck, my Uncle's trailer, and my Dad's lawnmower and haul it all down to my house, then haul it all back.

WORSER... The weather has been unseasonably cold lately, so I have to mow my lawn wearing bib overalls and a grey hooded sweatshirt in order to keep from freezing my kangos off.

WORSER STILL... My lawn is so horribly overgrown that before I even get a third of the way through my lawn I bust a belt on the mower, effectively ending my lawn mowing for the day.

BUT THE WORST PART OF ALL IS... At this rate I'll never have the honor of being the Clay City Garden Clubs Yard of the Month. Dammit.

Tee-Hee.

Your Recommended Mainstream Comic of the Week is "Ultimate Secret" from Marvel. It's written by Warren Ellis (the artist does a bang up job, but I can't remember his name right now) and Issues #1 and 2 are currently available.

And the new webcomic is up, with many apologies for doing nothing during the month of April.
