If I were a human . . .

I'd like to be a gardener.

I'd be great at it! The stereotypical gardener-for-hire is an athletic, handsome, hardworking fellows with an appreciation for the great outdoors and a decent understanding of plants, right?

I'm handsome. I'm strong. I know plants like nobody's business.

Mow a little over here, mow a little over there . . .

Trim this bush a bit, trim that bush a bit . . .

Prune this tree here, prune that tree there . . .

Take off this branch, take of that branch . . .

This branch . . . this succulent, delicious, divine young branch . . .

 That branch . . . the one with the tender, scrumptious little leaves.

And then? A nice glass of lemonade in the shade with a pretty lady, poolside.

  1. Fenway - you have made some good points - but we don't have grass or trees or bushes. We do have lots of dirt and weeds. I think Mom would like a good looking gardener that you pictured to clean up the weeds, plant some grass, trees and bushes.

    Your fren,

  2. Tell your mom that if she could find a nice gardener like that one then she could just have him ignore the weeds and give her a backrub.
