Shit, when is it going to stop raining? It has been raining/overcast now for 10 days straight. Fuck, this shit is getting on my nerves, not to mention boosting the grass. We have had a few times during this 10 day period that it has not rained, but it has been overcast like a mother fucker. The sun has come out a few times, but not that often.
I went and opened up the pool last week. With all this rain we been having, I should have waited a couple more weeks, oh well. I installed a new pump and hoses and got this synthetic material for the filter instead of sand. This stuff is supposed to work alot better than sand, and lasts for 7 years. The pool was very dirty. I swear there was a least a million leaves in the fucker. The cover I had on it last winter was kinda beat up, but sheesh, the water looked like I didn't have it covered at all!
There was a bunch of shit on the bottom. I had some pro-pool guys come out to assess my situation. It was not as bad as I thought. They cleaned the thing up. Now, I'm just waiting for this fucking weather to break so I can use it.
The lady went out and got some trees and plants and crap for the yard. I'm having the lawn guy plant those. I ain't dealing with that shit. I did build a workbench in my garage, after I finished I took a step back and looked at it. It does resemble a bar....hehe, workbench/bar. That will work for me.
Well, the lady is yelling at me, it must be supper time.

Still A Smoker
The gum didn't work. I still smoke. Damn!!! The gum did work for about 24 hours, I think I am just not ready to quit yet. Who the fuck knows.
I went out and got a riding mower, spent a little change on a John Deere. Well, that fucker didn't work either. My yard is mostly hill, I tried mowing and it worked great on my flat areas, on the hill it sucked. I almost tipped over 3 times. Had 3 wheels in the air once. I caught myself, if my lady would have been in the same situation, it woould have come down on top of her. So, the mower is out. I have informed my lawn guy that I will be retaining his services this year as well. He told me that he was wondering how that mower was gonna do on my hill. He does a great job, he uses a big commercial mower. Maybe next year I'll drop some coin and buy a big mower like he has.
One good thing has transpired out of this though, I now have a 65 inch high def. flat screen in the living room. I took the mower money and got that.
Now to say that High def is better than regular TV is an understatement. This shit rocks!! I watched the NBA playoffs last night Boston at Chicago, all I can say is WOW!! There is no comparison. Also picked up a Blu Ray player. I don't know about these things. The player I got "up converts" regular DVD's. I have watched a couple Blu Ray movies and really there aint no difference. I did buy Top Gun on Blu Ray, and that was choice. With the detail from Blu Ray it looked like a different movie. As far as Blu Ray discs go, I think I will not be buying new movies that are released on them, but older movies that are converted to Blu Ray might be the way to go.
I took my 36 inch tube TV and put it in the basement. It's fucking awsome. I now have the basement music room done. I just need to get a few more shelves for the CD's and records I have, but that's it. I downed a few a couple nights ago and watched a few concerts I have on DVD. Had a great time. I need to get my ass up north and get my other speakers. Then it will be complete.
Ah yesss........the house will shake. LOL.
