The Sunday Yard

Good morning, Creatures!

Finally, it seems as though Atlanta’s weather has recalled that it IS, in fact, April and MAYbe it should be warmer than 55 degrees.

I don’t know about the rest of you guys, but I feel like Atlanta has gotten more winter out of March and April than it did in the ACTUAL designated winter-months. This does not change the fact that in another month or so, everyone (myself, included) will soon be complaining about the oppressive heat and praying for fall again.

What HAS changed is that 1950s Dad and I have a house now, and all the spring-time trappings that come with it. Complete with zoysia grass (mentioned in an earlier Stick comic), the best grass in life. I was inORDinately happy to discover that the house came with a patch of this grass. We had nearly an entire lawn of it in the house I grew up in, and it’s just fantastic. Now I just have to encourage it to grow all over the yard because I am in love with zoysia grass and need to spread that love around. Man. I’m pretty sure the fact that I’m nerding out about grass is proof of my eventual slipping into adulthood. Nonetheless, I’m actually pretty thrilled about having a yard, even though I know it’s going to be a ton of work (what we have to get a lawn mower now?), but now that it’s finally gotten a little warmer (and stopped raining every other day), we’ve been able to start working in it. More adventures to follow, I’m sure.

That’s all for now, and as always: Thanks for reading!
