I'm not a great believer in karma. The whole ebb and flow of your life being influenced by the number of good and bad deeds you commit, just doesn't jive for me. Or should I say didn't, because after today, I'm starting to believe.
After last night's entry, exaulting what an asshole I am, I should have seen it coming. Maybe if I had seen it coming, I could have ducked. The Gods in their infinite wisdom decided that the best way for me to pay pennance for being such a prick was to have a large pigeon to fly into my head while I was walking in town.
There I was, strolling around, enjoying the spring sunshine, sidestepping the homeless and charity appeals, when THUNK, I thought I'd been hit in the head with a brick. Stunned, I stumbled for a few steps and then looked around to see an equally stunned looking pigeon stumbling in the other direction. It actually hurt quite a bit, as it hit me at full pelt up side the head, but I attempted to retain my dignity and soldiered on down the street.
So, there's a lesson here - don't be an asshole to people on planes, and write about them in a web log, cause a pigeon may fly into your head. If that's not a potential fortune cookie, I don't know what is.
