You Know Your Life Is Vanilla........

when you are out in the drizzling rain(more on that later),fixing your landscape lighting,and some guy walks up and tries to sell you a "deal."

(Does anybody sell a real deal,door-to-door? )

For the small price of $24.99 you get one half off a dinner on that you spend at least $50 on,at GrillSmith.

Let's see.....if we buy that coupon for $24.99 and get 1/2 off of a dinner that we spend $50 on,are we not spendng $50? Is that right? Haven't we already spent $25 on your coupon? And 1/2 off of $50 is $25,right?Isn't that still $50?

Wait!

I grew up in New York,so maybe that's New York math.

Maybe in Florida,the math is different?

Could that be?

I'll bet that's what it is.......

Yep.That's what it is.

How stupid of us not to have figured that out.....



So,people,get ready for this discourse...............

Are you ready?If you pee your pants,don't blame us........

Me-"Ummm,excuse me,but I'm not getting the math of your deal.And I'm friggin' wet here...."

Him-"Ma'am,this is an introductory type offer.We're trying to get people to visit our restaurant."

Me-"Ummmm....I'm still not getting your math.And I'm getting wetter,in this rain,trying to deal with YOU and these lights."

Him-"It has been raining alot,hasn't it?"

(WTF planet has he been on?We've had 4 1/2" of rain in 2 days!And it's still raining!!And it's muggier than Hell!" -No,I did not say that to him,Though,it did occur to me.)

Me-"How about this?You give me the $25 and I'll buy.How's that?"

Him-"Ma'am I can't do that."

Me-"Then I can't either."

.......................................................................................................

Sooo,yes,we've had all this rain,the past few days(and it's still coming down....).

No measureable rain(except for that freak hail storm last week) for months,

and,now,

Mother Nature is gonna give it all to us in

2 days........

Figures.

The front walkway has been dug up.And kinda/sorta been replanted.

Landscape lighting been rearranged (see above).

New plantings have been bought,but if we try to put them in,we'll drown!

So,this shall be dinner,tonite........ CHEERS!!!!
