Shared on Sun, 06/17/2007 - 15:41Yesterday Cutie and I had a big garage sale to get rid of some of the stuff in the house that we no longer need and to make some extra cash. One of the items I had up for sale was a riding lawn mower I just don't have a use for as our current home doesn't have that big of a yard.
A couple came by yesterday and we haggled on a price and settled on something that both of us could agree on. They paid half yesterday and half today when they came by to pick up the mower.
The guy didn't want to buy it without trying it out first and I can't say I blame him. So he hops on the thing, starts it up and takes off and then PROCEEDS TO MOW A BIG ARCH OUT OF MY NEIGHBORS FRONT YARD!!!
And this isn't just any neighbor, he is an agricultural professor at the local university who heads the turf and grass departments. It is kinda of expected for him to have a great looking yard.
When the guy realized what he had done he just kinda sheepishly looked at me and mouthed the word "sorry" through the sound of the engine.
Ugh, how am I going to live this down?
