The Pendulum

I was about to link to an old post in which I described how I had approached my car one wintry day to find that some poor bird had mistaken my drivers side mirror for a lover/enemy and repeatedly attempted to mount/attack it. The result of his efforts was a series of beak marks that obscured my view of traffic. It would have been another attempt on my part to describe how nature and the universe hates the iOff. Then I discovered that I actually never made such a post. Or uploaded such a picture. Coincidentally, I just this evening emptied 3.5 gigs worth of junk from my recycling bin that had been building up for several months, no doubt including the incriminating photos. Clearly the cosmos was covering its tracks.

Anyway, I was very excited about my new kitchen trim, see? Well, check it out!


Yeah, still horrible. One might say that it looks as if there was no change at all. That one would be correct.

What makes it worse is that a mere 7 minutes before I discovered the kitchen plans (and hastily reported them to you), I ran my car through a car wash. I laughed to myself at the ridiculous ad on the radio claiming 10% better fuel economy for clean cars and thought how enviro-savvy I was. I then parked my car in my lot and didn't touch it for two days (very green).

And that dang car wash ripped off my side mirror. Mother F'er. The manager "Saw a brand new looking mirror in the car wash but... just left it there. No idea where it is now..." I just found out. Curses.

Seriously... did they build this car out of Legos?? Notice how there is no trauma of any kind at the amputation site.

So the car wash finished the job. There is a sparrow in the world with a heart that is almost as swollen as his meninges right now.
