The first 5 minutes I'm like, "shit, this is going to kill me." Then I start getting back pains and I swear my hip popped twice. Then comes the light headedness about 15 minutes in. The I think I should take a break but then my anger kicks in and says "screw that shit, it will only take longer to complete!" So as I continue, I am sweating pretty hard and it's burning my eyes. I look up and still have 3/4 of a yard to mow, Sonafabitch!

I drive on with guns & roses blaring in my ear drums. Then? I start getting my second wind. My breathing improves and my fatigue is slightly diminishing. I got this shit!

I'm getting pretty close to being complete, then hit a brick wall. My mind says quit this shit, this is for kids and people are a little bit more active that don't sit at a desk all day. However, my pride starts kicking in. So as the tune back in black is raging in my ear drum, my mind is actually hearing the chugging of the little engine that could. I'm not stopping, I'm going to finish this *****!

The dogs are laying in my last few lines I got to mow, and as I'm heading at them, they are giving me the "eff you, mow around us look!" Well, HD is not taking shit from no dog and I head at them with a look in my eyes, "move, or I'll cut ya!" The knew I meant business and got the hell out of the way. Then, a miracle happened. I FINISHED!

Now I'm sitting in my mancave drinking a bud light and inhaling a Winston in congratulations for a job well done.

Opus of the middle aged push mower?
