Clean Living Experiment

So I started a Clean Living Experiment. I wanted to make a change for myself and I figured why pay for a program when all I need to do is go to bed early and exercise. My theory is that doing those 2 things should, in and of themselves, prevent me from other vices. So I've been forcing myself to go to bed early which means 10:30 on most nights. And I've been walking every morning at 5:30. The hardest part has been forcing myself to go to bed. I am such a crazy night owl it's not even funny but within a day or so I saw the benefits such as increased energy and sounder sleep. As for the exercise, I can honestly say that I'm a little addicted at this point. I've been walking about 5000 steps each morning which is roughly 2 miles. Below are my observations:
  • Many people spend many hours perfecting their lawn. We are not one of them;
  • I pass by one of these every morning. I'm thinking of changing my route;
  • Apparently I'm in the minority of not liking gazing balls;
  • Lawn hobos are the new lawn jockey;
  • Instead of Mary in the half-shell there's Mary in the half-tub; and
  • Shin splints are the devil's handiwork.

Can you further define "lawn hobo"? Is that a homeless person sleeping on someones front lawn, perhaps a barfly who didn't make it home the night before and passed out on someone's lawn? Are you confusing the gnome with a hobo? Zoe and Liam think the word hobo is just fucking hilarious and use it every chance they get.

Visualize a Hummel figurine on skid-row propping up a lamp post.

You should ask Liam for his definition of a hobo hobknocker.
