I just learned a bad lesson. If you put so much trash in a trash bag that you can't easily lift it, so you have to SWING it to get it moving enough so you can HEAVE it over the side of the trash toter, then the trash bag better be pretty strong.

Oops.

I'm now cleaning up the flowerbed in short stages because it's already so danged hot out.

Curse you, Physics!

It was quite a mess. :-(

Yes indeed! And - how do I put this delicately? - cat owners know what might make a trash bag very heavy. Gah, what a mess!

This is why that always gets it's own little bag--all tied up before going into the big bag or can. Hurray for plastic grocery bags!

Oh, it did. That tore too.

Oh, man! Thanks for the laugh! It's been years since I'd thought of that one!
Saturday, June 17th, 2006 06:29 pm (UTC)
Wow! You must have really heaved that!
Saturday, June 17th, 2006 06:30 pm (UTC)
OMG--I haven't heard that for years!

I think it was that it went through the oleander on the way. (sheepish look)

Argh - I hope that wasn't a sign of your whole day (I say that only because that's how things like that usually end up for me). You need this icon. :-)
Saturday, June 17th, 2006 06:57 pm (UTC)
I guess it *is* funny. :-) Now I'm laughing too!
Saturday, June 17th, 2006 06:58 pm (UTC)
Yes, that icon is just about perfect! That and the one you use with the words "Now cut that out!"

I knew I hated oleander for a reason.

Send me your heat! WE've been having so much rain lately, it's just been sick!
Saturday, June 17th, 2006 08:50 pm (UTC)
I'd love to! BZZZZZZZZZZ, that's the heat-beam!

even having eaten the live toad might not been enough :)

Hefty Hefty Hefty! Wimpy Wimpy Wimpy! :)

EXACTLY!

I think it might have been enough had I done it! :) Fortunately my day got better. I got a visit from [livejournal.com profile] ambar and a feisty big gorgeous German Shepherd. (Um, put the parsing parens in the right places so that I do not now own a dog.) Very fun.

I find it amusing to just change to a lowercase "s". I can certainly see how a feisty big gorgeous German shepherd might be fun, but Marilyn Monroe wouldn't approve -- couldn't you find a feisty bigh gorgeous German oil magnate? ;-)
