The damn relentless, howling, annoying wind. I live at the convergence of two valleys, which act as wind tunnels more or less. I always wonder how many flicks of the lighter I'll need just to get it going, and if the number of roof shingles that got blown off the night before is greater than or less than that number. It's a toss-up in most instances. Once I get a bowl going, it's pretty much smooth sailing from then on in, but damn...sometimes I feel like a real schmuck hunched over like I'm pinching a loaf in the woods, flicking a lighter endlessly in the tiny space between the laundry room, the retaining wall, and the corner of the house.

To be fair, I feel like a schmuck many other times too, but that's a topic for another time. :rolleyes:


Maybe there's an old phone booth you could 'adopt,' like Dr Who?
