I have returned home to Claudia's, making the long, long trip across the yard, accompanied by the vitamins I'm no longer supposed to take, the frozen lentil soup, the paint-covered overalls, and all the unpaid bills that seem to dog my footsteps. But not, apparently, accompanied reliably by my e mail on either my computer or my iPhone. And the hunt for the Great Gas Leak goes on, more urgently now that I'm the one smelling it in my bedroom.
Hard move.. although I am in Boston and it is VERY wet, so it might be a soggy move! How do you get to stop taking vitamins?
ReplyDeleteFind out how big the rock is.. I think you need to know! Or clear out further around it and embrace the rock if it's huge!
ReplyDeleteWell, you're not far away if you want to come dig!
ReplyDeleteBut yes. Very wet. No digging today or tomorrow.
And alas, another large study indicating that certain vitamins are hazardous to your health.

Breakout
ReplyDeleteTake #2 shovel
cut surrounding soil to 2'-6"
below grade
Now we whirl:
Call the Campfire Girl
Build a good wide flame
atop this rock
(so named)
Run 'er good and hot,
send the kid for a pot
When cold water hits the brim
it's time to send it in
Dump the whole schmear
top o' rock--right here!
John-Henry that sledge
and blast the ledge
Where I bin to travel,
We can now call it gravel
TNT.
ReplyDeleteDrill Ye Tarriers Drill.
Uh....I was just going to say "Welcome Home" but now that feels inadequate what with all the fancy drill talk and all...
