bluebearddamn lawnmower.. the choke is stuck. took the carb apart to get at it, and lo, the choke itself works fine (the rust in the lid wasn't a good sign, however)... something in the wire. I also discovered that the body isn't in the proper slots. It's just kind of resting around the engine. Something is off-kilter with the blades and the belt keeps falling off. You'd think dad would take care of his expensive machinery.
internal combustion + negligence != mowed lawn.
swearing != repair.
Anyway, tomorrow morning at 5am we leave for San Antonio. My sister says she's trying to figure out which of her friends are available which days so I'll have company while she's at work and the parents are at the convention. Whee... scheduled alone time with complete strangers.
Dad's been sick, and my throat&lungs feel scratchy. If this turns into another Bronchitis Vacation Week, I'm going to murder someone. I will. I promise.
Saturday we're going down to the beach by Corpus Christi. Shannon says it's not a "nice" beach, but, hell, it's the ocean.
Mmm. Ocean.
weather.com says it should be nice. Here's to hoping.
