summer's last glimmer - monday

ok so i thought "hey i could post about how i spent my last week of summer...however uninteresting it may turn out to be..."


so here is monday...

i get up early and head to the Chi Omega house to do some cleaning before school starts. I very quickly see this is going to be a much larger task than i had first percieved...

the lawn looks like a beard that someone tried to remove with sandpaper (i think someone tried to use a weedeater on the whole yard..), the storage closet is looming it's horribly cluttered head at me in mocking, and i go into the back yard and almost sorta kinda freak...

at first i laughed because i thought someone tried to have a bonfire and it burned part of the deck... then i saw the rest of the burn, the limb,... and the wire.... then i kinda figure out what happened and start running around in frantic hopeful disbelief, flipping swiches and pleading to noone in particular that the circumstances were not actually true... the electricity was off until further notice. that meant that i had to work without AC...... not cool. (no pun intended)

apparently the limb fell, pulling the wire down, which pulled the wires off o fthe house and out of the meter box, which caused a large explosion frying half of the nearby tree/bush (some of the leaves were all puffed up like popcorn...), lighting the grass and fence onfire... somehow the deck caught fire and burned pile of leaves too. too bad i didn't get to see any of it lol

so anyway, i decided to ignore the back for the time being and pullabout a gazillion weed from the front, pulled everthing out of the supply/storage/junk/catchall closet and started sorting.... then i met my dad for lunch and went over to work at his office!

well, that's not all i did.... i might tell you the rest later ;-)
