Word of the Day

Blasphometer - A meter used to measure how blasphemous a just-uttered statement was. It is generally created by holding one's arms in front of oneself with elbows bent at right angles so that the left hand rests on top of the right elbow, and the right hand is directly below the left elbow. The left hand is then raised in an arc, like the needle on a speedometer, to indicate the severity of the blasphemy just uttered.

HTP and I drove to the city. HTP wanted to pick up some rolls of sod. I figured...I'd tag along. I wanted to buy some potting soil and a few fresh herb plants. Then...while we were there, we stopped at a store on the Main Street in the city where they have party supplies. Lots and lots of party supplies. I got baby shower party supplies. Woohoo! Plates, napkins, cups, a tablecloth, a centerpiece, all kinds of neato things all in one place. Oh...and then, after stopping to get groceries...we got the rolls of sod.

HTP has already rolled out all the sod and watered it in. He only got eight rolls of it. We really didn't have that big an area that needed sodding. HTP just wanted to have it because he knows it'll keep the weeds down in that area more than bark mulch or gravel. Now...all he'll have to do is mow or weed-whack it.
