Those of you who know me know that I hate to wear pants. I will go in shorts well into the winter and will hit the shorts as early in spring as possible. I thought that starting into shorts in May was totally reasonable, well up in Chicago it is apparently not a good idea. Shorts and t-shirts are like a religion to me, so when I switch, it’s like a promise to the holy trinity. Today broke me. I got up and it was raining and 36 degrees with a very stiff wind. I made it through the morning in shorts, but after working on the windows and taking a shower, I was too cold to carry on my religious crusade. The weather had gotten me and I gave way to the evil blue jeans!
The local community pool opens this weekend and everyone is excited about starting the season. How could they possibly get an outdoor pool to a swimmable temperature with the outdoor temperature in the 30 and the wind at 20 mph. I think there’s going to be a lot of disappointed, entitled Highland Park moms asking them why they can’t control the weather better in the district. It is a really nice pool though. It’s got a big pot that fills and spills and lots of squirt-ey things and 2 giant water slides. A good friend of ours brought the kids with her and her children just after we moved here. I, on the other hand, have a CPO certification and know way too much about pools. I honestly won’t swim in a public pool. Too many dirty asses out there and every one of them that goes swimming leaves a little of that for me to swim in. If I want shit in my face that bad, I’ll rub my face in my dog’s ass. No strangers’ poop for me today, thank you!
It’s official now. I incorporated last week and I am now legally RentAZack.com, Inc. Home improvement extraordinaire! It was a long road to get it all going, but I have it done. Now I have to get some customers and get some income! I can’t wait! It’s been so long since I’ve done this kind of work for profit. I’ve done probably $20k worth of work for free around my house and still am only half done. It’s hard to stay on task when you’re not getting any money for it. I’m just not inspired when the work is free.
