I think I'm going to get drunk and powerwash the back porch
Between the fucked up Whitehouse/Congress debt ceiling and budget debacle and the slaughter of dozens of innocent kids in Norway I think I have hit my brain's limit. So here's a toast to better news and a clean back patio.

5. I have powerwashing on my to-do list next week ...
I am, however, due to the absolutely outrageous state of national affairs, drunk already (it's 12:00 somewhere!) Cheers.

7. Too damn hot on the East Coast for outside work today, But, cold beer sounds about right!
Here's to the guys who manage to get their chores done in all weather, and still know how to have a good time doing it. :beer:

8. You need to take the pledge...
"I will not powerwash the cat. I WILL NOT powerwash the cat."

11. I pressure washed the driveway and front walk just a few days ago.
It's very satisfying work, and now my place is starting to look like decent people might live here.

12. UPDATE
Well the buzz is now ON!! Although I think I sweat most of the actual beer out. Most of the patio is powerwashed. I have a screened in Florida porch and am trying to decide if I've had too many beers to get the latter out and do the high parts. I'll think it over while i sip another frosty beverage.

14. NO!!!!!!!!
You stay OFF that ladder!! If you're that bored, go find an elderly couple and offer to power wash their porch.

NO LADDERS!

17. I think you are correct.... I'll do the driveway
If I fall down the only thing I'll have to deal with is a snickering neighbor or two. Good call!!

16. dude, if you can't spell the name of the thing you want
to climb...then you have had too many frosty beverages. You are probably at the point where you should make a salad, and watch some netflix.

15. I need to powerwash my siding.
I look at it as a cheap substitute for going to the water park on a hot summer day.

19. Thank you.
I have enough people to be concerned about without worrying about some random fellow DUer falling on his head.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend...safely.
