Dummy Dance 2

(In which our hero gives the !_)@*# up and contemplates going the !)(&@@^ back to bed)

Okay. Swelling goes down, I head outside to mow before the Big Bad of all thunderstorms hits, judging from the radar images.

I get outside, and the friggin' lawn mower has suddenly developed an aversion to actually cutting grass. It starts, I get about six inches mowed (shaddap), and it stops. Multiple times.

So okay, I fill it up. It was a trifle low on gas. Easily fixed.

Nope. Still stopping.

So I prime it one last time, give the cord a mighty yank.. and the flippin' cord ZINGS back to its alloted(sp?) resting place, slapping the bejeesus out of me nipple on the way. But it's running again, so I try.. and you guessed it. Stopped.

So, all in all, I smell like gas, have a stingy sore nipple and I'm going to go read some of sailorjim's stuff and sulk.

Did you check underneath and see if the blade was clear and not being stopped by grass clippings and such?
Another possible cause is the sparkplug or air filter being dirty.
Check the oil too.

best thing is to get someone else to mow it for you :)

DOOOD! thats unconcentual nipple-whipping that your lawn-mower was participating in!

Great. First I punch myself in the chin lighting incense, then I get nipple-raped by my lawnmower. God, I love my life.

Wet grass was often a issue when I did it. Might try again after it is dry.

Considering the burnt chin, and sore nipple, I'm surprised you don't have some kind of wild sex act tale to tell! Maybe best to make one up. Never hurts for your friends to think you're still a animal in bed. ;P

Egads...what an irritating morning you've had!!!

Sometimes an irritating string of mishaps is the universe's way of asking us if we need a little bit more bedrest.

Or maybe I've having a nap attack from all of this rain on the roof.

You're just trying to make me feel better about that whole 'Keystone Cops make Coffee' incident aren't you?

I'm sorry, sweetie.

Just remember, I'm not laughing at you. I'm laughing near you. *Grin*

Love you.

Lemme just get my chainsaw and avenge your sore nipple. :)

I'm being serious.

Next time, be more careful mister.

Mush the kitties for me. ♥
