This morning returned to the house from the garage. There is no mirror in the kitchen near the door to garage and I did not look into it to de-jinx myself. I already knew I did wrong. At the same time I was extremely late to the office. And what do you know, first a cop pulled me over as I rode the shoulder, but instead of ticketing a hefty dude (possibly a biker himself) barked at me through the cruiser window: - Stay where you belong! Do you understand? I nodded, then watched his car exit the express lane and went on lane-splitting. Closer to the Downtown a BMW started crossing lanes cutting me off in the process. I was always curious how it would happen the first time. In my imagination that involved my bloodied body carried away by firemen. (Firemen were from my last ER visit. Six of them completely filled the kitchen where I fainted from the blood loss and cracked jokes intended to revive me). This time it was slow and surprisingly protracted event. A few seconds, say, three, lasted long enough for me to think about variants of not slamming into it. So we moved along gracious concentric curves to the left a few inches one from another until the driver noticed me and jerked the wheel to the right. I am jinx free, I guess.
