Canine Enabling.

Janine is one of the middle Dawson sisters and while they all have well developed senses of humor, she is probably the one voted "Most likely to become a stand up comic in her 70's because fuck you, that's why". Since she has a birthday coming up, and another birthday just passed, I thought I would relate my first experience meeting her. On a side note, the title has nothing to do with actual canine enabling, when I first added her number to my phone it auto-corrected to this and so it's remained ever since. When Trish and I were early dating Trish wanted to improve her back yard with a new layer of sod. Not necessarily a difficult task if you don't mind carrying heavy rolls of dirt around and we both we thought we had made good progress. Janine stopped by to visit her sister shortly after and was kind enough to point out that a few spots had been missed or appeared a bit wonky. Trish promptly told Janine to stop disrespecting her lawn which was seen as a challenge (of course), and we were treated to several minutes worth of lawn-related insults that would have reduced the toughest weed out there to tears, if they had eyes...

Worthy insults mentioned included:

"Your Mother was a crabgrass!"

"That's a terrible shade of green!"

"You're not a lawn!"

and so forth.
