Brr! It's windy and cold outside. I could barely light my cigarette.
You: Dumbfuck, go back inside where it's warm.
Me: Do you smoke?
You: No.
Me: So shut your piehole!
Anywho, had to get that out of my system since I seem to be saying it every two hours. I'm supposed to go out and clean the swingset sometime today. It was one of those things we inherited when we bought the house. We insisted that the sellers haul it away, and they promised they would. Ha! Then again, these are the same people that when we asked "Are you going to leave the lawnmower?" said yes, and left a yellow toy plastic lawnmower in the back yard instead. Hmph. What a sick sense of humor.
Anyhow, we placed a freebie ad in one of those local independent publications thinking that more than likely there wouldn't be any biters for it. We got three in two days. I guess "free" is always pretty when it comes to getting the kids Christmas gifts. Shit, they don't know that mom and pop didn't pay a dime for it. There it'll be outside on Christmas morn, clean and shiny with a big red bow around it. They'll think that it's just like the one they saw at Wal-Mart a couple of weeks ago, and'll actually behave for 3 days thinking Santa Claus really does exists because their wish came true.
If it's really going to be as cold tomorrow as I heard, there's no way I'm going out there with a bucket of soapy water. Sheesh, I must be more like my grandma than I thought. Here we are giving something away that's in great condition and I'm worried about how dirty the thing is. I need to be more worried about have fuckin' dirty my car is and give it a clean and wax before the frost really comes.
