I wondered why this happened. Then I looked at the calendar. Now I know. Here I was ready to go out on search-and-destroy, in search of that known troublemaker, Hoo Doo, the Witch Doctor. I was just absolutely convinced that featered-rattle-shaker was casting maledictions and malevolence in my general direction! First the heat exchanger on my furnace split (already addressed that here recently) Parts were due in 7 to 10 days (should have asked if those were calendar days or business days) -- it's been a (calendar) week and nothing. Grabbed the shovel and was going to scrape that fluffy white stuff off the driveway. Garage door went 7/8 of the way up and hung. I didn't pay attention, I was busy with snow, at least until brisk winds whipped light and fluffy across where I'd just cleared, a -4 wind chill burned into my knuckles and I gave it up for a bad job. Hit the garage door closer. It wouldn't. Stripped two gears in the drive. So now I'm waiting on furnace parts, and I'm running my garage door by hand (springs are still good so I can do that!) If I see Hoo Doo skulking about I'll belt him a good one between the eyes (standing feud, you understand) but I found the case of this misfortune. I looked at the calendar. Friday the 13th comes on a Friday this month! No wonder misfortune is mine!
