Okay, will the wise guy (or gal) responsible for all my unsavory luck lately (since the first day of 2006) kindly remove the curse (or curses)? I know I've lived a relatively charmed life so far and I have miles to go before I catch up with the median good luck to bad luck ratio, but honestly, I could use a bit of a breather.
This weekend Tom found yet another leak in the heating system; We all came down with nasty flu-like viruses (I took the brunt); I had a bout of acid-reflux that kept me awake all night; and this morning my dryer began to smoke. Sigh.
And yes, I know: things could be so much worse. I know this. Thanks. This is my last bit of self-indulgence (I think).
Okay. Back to literature.
UPDATE:
I walked into a wall yesterday (Yes, I know. You don't have to say it) and this morning my third toe is purple.
