Mowing the lawn is a rewarding activity for some people. You work outside in the bright sun and are rewarded by a nicely, manicured lawn. However, other individuals do not like to mow the lawn at all. Here are ten excuses for not mowing the lawn:
- I like to experience the jungle effect of a nice tall lawn
- I just threw out my back. I'm afraid I won't be able to mow the lawn for a week.
- I'm allergic to grass. I'm allergic to weeds. But most of all, I'm allergic to work.
- The kids want to go to the baseball game so badly. Can't it just wait until tomorrow?
- I consulted my horoscope and it warned me that I would be in grave danger if I mowed the lawn today. How can I argue with fate?
- I've got to go into work today. I just got an emergency call.
- I've got hemorrhoids and they're acting up this very moment
- I've got piano lessons in thirty minutes. I'm playing in a soccer game in two hours. I've been invited to see a newly released movie. I'm sorry but I'm completely book. Go talk to my secretary tomorrow about mowing the lawn.
- I'm afraid that if I mow the lawn, I will obliterate every last blade of grass in the backyard
- I'm waiting for the grass to grow to the top of our trees. It will be called our Blades of Glory.
