i'm pretty much living alone for the next month. it's really nice most of the time, but i discovered a problem recently. see, during the school year, our friend grant had been cutting our grass for us. well he's now home for the summer, and being the only one at the house, that responsiblity now falls on me. the problem? i've never cut grass before. i tried once when i was younger, a lot younger, but i couldn't push the lawn mower. it was kinda sad for me. i ended up with a horrible sense of failure. i cried. that's a lie, but i did try once and i couldn't do it. so anyway, i decided that i had to overcome this whole grass cutting thing, and this morning i conquered the yard! oh yes, i cut our entire yard, front and back, like a CHAMP! i must say that i'm pretty proud of myself. go me!
