I bought my husband a grill from Lowes a couple of years ago for Christmas. It was the nicest one there with one side gas, one side charcoal and complete with a side smoker and gas burner. I was wondering why it was so cheap until I opened the box and saw it was a do it yourself kit. Some assembly required my ass.

I expected whatever I bought would require assembly (especially since I bought it today and need it up and working by tomorrow). I also know my husband's limitations so I hired Juan to come assemble it tomorrow morning. *love Juan* It's a nice BBQ-a Weber e-330 or something. Not terribly fancy but he probably BBQ's 6 times a year so it's good enough. I refuse to touch the BBQ; it's my only break from cooking so I feign ignorance.

As I was hitting main street in town I had to stop because a geese family were crossing the street. I couldn't see the people in the cars behind me but those on the opposite side facing me all looked crabby and their mouths were running like they were bitching. Who the hell begrudges thirty fuckin' seconds of time. Assholes.

Thanks Rams and HotD.
I had a great mothers day. I spent my day with family by the poolside. I also had an awesome dinner.

Maybe it was because they were geese. Geese are dicks.

I have another critter story today. I had walked out the door to leave and I noticed my cat doing that thing that means he's on the verge of killing something so I shouted & rushed at him. He had another snake and he dropped it when he saw me coming. I was just going to pick it up and throw it behind the boxwood and the damn thing lunged at me! I laugh now but I damn near shit. I hollered and my feet were moving a mile a minute and I didn't move an inch.

My eyes widened reading this. I could picture the cat in the lunge phase and then the snake, that would have been heart attack material for me. That's bad.

I would have had a meltdown right then and there. Straight jacket and rubber room meltdown complete with incoherent babbling and uncontrollable slobbering. Aussie knows what I'm talking about.

He was scared & bleeding. I grabbed a rake and helped him into the boxwood. He should be safe as long as he stays in there. I think there's a nest around my home.

It's nothing a benzo wouldn't fix F2. Some people feign that state to get them drugs.

You were going to pick up a dead snake??? And then it wasn't dead?!?! Me and F2 would end up roomies in the rubber room.

It was alive. I saved it from my cat. It was injured though, I saw blood.

I would kill that bastard in a heartbeat with no bad feelings whatsoever. The whole world would be a better place if every last snake was dead and gone.
