Haha very true! I should have said you'd ALMOST rather spend time looking at picture of beautiful lawns as opposed to beautiful girls.

Hostas go into the garden limit category?

...you tell your wife you're going to Serenade the lawn and she looks at you funny, but doesn't say a word...

Which begs the question - which flashlight app is best for spotting KBG seedlings?

And I don't know what you guys are talking about - the ultimate landscape in my mind is a beautiful car parked on my beautiful lawn in front of some beautiful roses with my beautiful girl.

Hoosier, you left out some important details. Was it a Rolls-Royce convertible? What about hord'oeuvres prepared by your chef, and served to you by your butler on a silver tray? LOL

Not to mention, no cares in the world because your live-in groundskeeper will make any necessary repairs to the lawn. LOL

That you're excited for 4 days of rain which will wash out your weekend (and you're only on you're 2nd aggressive N app after a very dry late summer) which includes golf.

...your co-workers wonder why you're so excited and it's because you're approaching the top of the Soil test queue!

ROFLMAO. Will you dive out a window if I skip you?

You forgot the topic.. CLEARLY anything I do would be self-inflicted via a lawn implement...

.... you call up the mower guy down the street and he recognizes your house as the "one with the brown lawn"

.... you go to a New Year's Eve party and the friend of your neighbor says "You're the guy that killed his entire lawn!"

If you overnight ship a box full of lawn weeds

When you're at the beach, you wonder what the TEC of the dune sand is where the wild grasses grow.

You kill the best lawn on the street because its not good enough

1st place right out of the gate! Lol...

You might be pawn crazy if;

Summer finally arrives and you're already anxious for the fall feeding and mowing regimen...

You pull 20 soil tests per year because of "micro climates"...

You have a better weather station at your home than the local news...

You have more supplies in your shed than your local coop carries in their inventory...

You eat tuna 3 square meals for 2 weeks leading up to summer so you can tweak your irrigation...

You tell your wife that there is no such color as "Ochre", and in the next breath patiently explain that the lawn must be destroyed because a couple of 6" patches are not the same as the rest of the lawn, and that there are 256 shades of Green (and 240 of them are bad).

When your friends start asking around this time of year how to control crabgrass...

"Crabgrass?!? You're worried about crabgrass?? I'm worried about all kinds of weedy grasses, quack, poa a., poa t... and you're talking to me about !@#$%! crabgrass!?! And Get off my lawn!!"

You come home from work at lunch time just to check in on how your freshly germinated grass is doing and ask if it needs anything.

You go golfing and notice all the different types of weeds and grasses (not crazy yet)

And once you come across a patch of Triv you give it wide latitude (almost there)

And then quarantine your golf shoes once you get home... Just in case. (There it is!)

You talk to the little seedlings and say come on little buddy eat your milo like a good boy

Your wife asks when your new internet pen pals, Andy, Hoosier Lawn Gnome and Morpheus, are coming to dinner.
