In addition to his drawn out mumblings and frustrated hair grabbing, this is the typical sequence of excuses/ delays that play out each and every weekend:
- In the evening: I don't feel like it, I'll do it in the morning.
- The next morning: I'm just getting up--I'll do it.
- Before lunch: It's too hot, I'll do it tonight.
And today, a new one:
- The grass is wet. I don't like it when the cut grass sprays up and sticks to my legs.
Oh, sweet procrastination. It's a habit we pick up all too early.

We have two lawn boys so they can come up wth double the excuses. When they actually get out there and start something it's usually arguing.
I'll mow and you edge.
No, I want to mow.
You missed a spot.
You're not doing it right.
Since I mowed, you get to clean up.
