A Bird in the Hand
If a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush, what is a face full of bird poop worth? No, it's not a clever riddle from the latest Batman flick. It's a joke really. My life can b e a joke. It is today. My animal karma is officially OFF this week. After barely making it to tennis this morning (in every way), I was proud walking home, sweaty, accomplished. I did it! I was thinking (again) "yeah. I can do this thing! I am gonna SPLAT make it." Never. I mean never. Do you know anyone who ever got bird pooped in the FACE? I am so grossed out right now. First, I know that the reason I can smell the dead mouse is because actual molecules of his stinky liquefying guts are going up my nose. What I really needed was some filthy bird excrement in my mucous membranes to boost my immune system into the stratosphere. And it got on my tennis racquet handle. I had just wrapped it. PINK. Do you think that punk aimed!? You thought pterodactyls were extinct, didja? Well, not based on the size of this event. I don't think it was an ostrich up there. Seriously. Pray for me.

Okay this actually happened to me! When I was 10years old, we ran into a boy I had a crush on..at the boardwalk and just as I was about to say something pithy.. a seagull divulged it's entire morning's movement onto my forehead! I was then told by all of the octagenarians on the long walk of shame back down the boardwalk this is a sign of GOOD LUCK in Greece!
So, are you feeling lucky?
yours,

PS I'm so happy this FINALLY happened to somebody else!
I got hit right in the middle of my head... walking back to my apartment when I lived in Italy. I had the worst day... crappy day in class, creepy old man grabbing my ass, argument with my roomie... all of the normal things that make a bad day. Then WHAM I was hit in the middle of the head!
But at that point... all I could do was laugh! That's all you can do!!!
Approximately 40 of my shipmates and myself were on the fantail of the USS Wainwright (CG-28) receiving instructions for the day from one of our superior officers. It was a beautiful day in the Med and we were all excited as we would be entering port soon! Just when the officer started yelling about conduct ashore, a seagull flew over and bombed him but good!
