It's Been Such A Long Time

Ya so to everyone who actually checks out my blog I am so sorry for the lack of updates. It has been a difficult couple of weeks. Mostly due to my recent battle with Swine Flu. That is right I fought and conquered the beast, but the fight took me a little over a week. It was not fun. My fever got up to 103 degrees, not the best for your health.
So I decided to write about a one of the somewhat odd things that I really enjoy. I really enjoy the smell of garden hose water. I don't have any idea why I like the smell but it is always really nice when I catch a wiff of it. Maybe it's because I used to work for a small landscaping company and my main responsibility was sprinkler system maintenance and repair. Or maybe it's because as a child i used to play in the sprinklers and throw water balloons around with my friends and family. Or maybe it is because when I was a kid i invented a game called Water Baseball where all of the bases were kiddie pools and the baselines were littered with sprinklers. We played with tennis balls and the little wooden bats that you can get at baseball games, you know the ones that are like 1 foot long. It was an awesome game. It could be a combination of all these different things but I really do like the smell of garden hose water.
