They say bad things happen in threes. They also say that bad
things happen when Mercury’s in retrograde. I think Mercury has been in
retrograde and I’m doubling up on the trios, because tonight I dropped my phone
and shattered the screen!
It all started after a bad thunderstorm back in July. The
hot tub stopped working. Not sure why. We drained it and cleaned it out, but
haven’t put in the effort to refill it and get it serviced. And now it’s
looking like we may put that off for a few more weeks, if not months. Because
just two weeks ago, our refrigerator stopped working. Even worse, after everything
had melted and gone bad, it started working again, leaving me with a nasty
frozen mess in the bottom of the freezer! Apparently the compressor is dying
and it’s cheaper to just buy a new one. Less than a week after the fridge
drama, our thermostat broke. It had been randomly losing electricity, but this
time we couldn’t resurrect it, so we had to replace it. It took over 24 hours
for our AC to start working again, so I’m a little iffy about whether that’s going
to need repair or not.
My car has been going downhill rapidly for a while now, so
today I decided to go car shopping. It’s running, but it needs a pretty major
repair and given that I’m almost at 200,000 miles, I’ve opted to let the car
go. So that’s not exactly broken, but it isn’t running well.
And tonight I dropped my phone. I drop my phone all the
time. Not even kidding. And I have a protective case and a screen protector.
But this time the glass just shattered. It’s so bad I’m having trouble reading
parts of the screen. And I’m thinking, how much will THIS set me back!
Do I have another bad luck event on the horizon? Or can we
just let this all go and move along.
Maybe I can just blame Donald Trump. Yeah. Forget about
retrograde Mercury – the REAL cause of all my troubles is the orange clown
running for President!
