A Bird Pooped on Me!

On Wednesday, I didn’t run until 9:30 at night, and running in the dark, I feared the boogeyman and wild animals.

On Thursday, I left the house around 2:00 in the afternoon for my run. It was broad daylight, and I had no fears. One block from my house, a bird pooped on my shoulder. I wiped most of it off with a leaf. My fear of a wild animal did not include one POOPING on me!!

 

When a bird poop’s on you, it is supposed to be a sign of good luck. Apparently this has something to do with “what are the odd’s of THAT happening?” It has actually happened to me before. I prefer to win the lottery if we’re talking odds, but ah well. Anyhow, I wondered what great “lucky” things the rest of the day might bring. So far, I had cooked my first artichoke, only to throw it away. I think it may not have been ripe?? Or possibly over ripe?? Then I boiled my first parsnips to make whipped parsnips, only to throw those away. They smelled awful while they were cooking and I couldn’t take the smell any longer. The rest of the day was surely going to be great, after all, a bird just pooped on me!

While heading back home from my run, I hear a garage door open, a dog start barking, and a woman start yelling! “Come back here right now!” As I turn to look, a dog runs right up to me and bites me on my ASS!

The owner was yelling at the dog and apologizing all over herself. I was a little freaked out, like….did that really just happen? It was a big fluffy dog too, not even scary looking! I looked down and realized my pants were ripped. I’m like….”uh, I think your dog just bit me.” She’s like…..”what can I do?” I’m like…..”Take your dog inside?”

She offered to buy me new pants. I told her they were old and it was fine, then I looked for blood. I didn’t see any. I came home and checked again. No blood. Just this bump on my butt!!

I am going to say that….a bird pooping on you does not necessarily bring good luck, and from now on, I will fear wild AND domestic animals in the dark AND in the daylight!
