You said you’d help me disappear

I (once again) cleared out my blog and am starting fresh. This time, I just marked them private and didn’t delete them all! So, I have mono and a co-infection (sinus infection, as far as I know) and I feel like death. My throat hurts to do anything, I’m tired, have random body aches, and don’t want to do anything. I’m supposed to rest and take it easy, so I go to work.

Today at work, I was on a riding mower which eventually broke. I started the blades and it was really loud – sounded like a metro ‘copter and was just about as loud as one; earphones didn’t help much. I went back to the garage to ask if it was okay, and after listening to it, the full-timers decided it was good to go. Despite the noise, it cut okay. I was out cutting a giant field with two other kids when all of a sudden it got sort of quiet. I figured it was either really good or really bad. Looking behind me, I saw that not much was cut. I looked inside and a metal spring had snapped. Once I took it back, a guy asked me if I knew how to drive with a trailer so I could take it to get fixed. My dad had taught me on Sunday, but I never went out in traffic, which I told him. He said, ‘maybe we’ll let you get some more experience first.’ I later texted my dad about how funny my luck was, to which he replied with, ‘You only live once. Take a chance and be careful.’ FML! I would have done it if I knew he would have said that. It was about 3 hours after I almost drove it, so the chance was long gone. Maybe I’ll ask if I can tomorrow.

I ordered an Apple MacBook Pro 17.” I’m excited! Although not a fan of Apple, it’s going to be nice to have a laptop again.

I’ve been watching the history channel like crazy lately; I’ve seen almost every show twice this week.

It’s good to be back!
