And once again, I try to accomplish the smallest thing and it blows up in my face:

We have a lot of dead shrubs and overgrowth in the back corner of our yard. I actually got up the motivation over the weekend to drag my ass out there and cut back a little of it. One of the things I cleared out was this long-dead thick climbing thing that grew up along the fence (it used to go over the top, but the neighbor had cut off his side long ago.)

Turns out those stupid dead branches were the only thing holding the fence up! Now there's a huge section of fence that's fallen down into my neighbor's yard. I'd have left the damn thing alone if I'd known it was structural.
