I mowed my lawn this afternoon
Beautiful 60 degree day in South Mississippi. My very conservative neighbor was also mowing. I told him this global warming was just killing us. His sense of humor is on par with james dobson and sean hannity.

And I can guarantee, I didn't break a sweat.

6. Yeah, I did too. Except with an Ariens snow blower and ice chopper.
I love the outdoors.

9. I like how we rarely get real snow in Chicago so far this year
It's almost always a "wintry mix", meaning it rains for a while, then sleet and ice, then late that night the icy roads get a nice covering of snow to make sure you can't tell how slick the ice is under the snow.

10. I'm never sure how to dress for work anymore...
And the building's AC is confused as well. I'm keeping sweaters and wraps at my desk.

My outdoor plants are suffering frostbite and heat stroke all in one week!

Los Angeles was weird enough without this.

12. ...
FYI, lawn mowers spew a lot of polution into the air. I know you SEC guys like to manicure your lawn, year round, but...

14. Believe it or not
it needed mowing. I'm trying to stay ahead of the weeds. Gardening and "manicuring" are incredibly therapeutic for this old fart. Saw Tony Romo advertising for Wal-Mart. Auditioning to be a greeter?
