Not that I'm particularly superstitious,
But a lot of things seem to be telling me not to college today.

First of all, I missed the bus. Not to unusual an occurrence on its own.

So, I walk home, and my mum agrees to give a lift in. We drop my sister off a school first, and as she opens the passenger door... it falls off.

Now, we manage to somehow lock it back on, but a car lock and half a hinge isn't going to keep a bloody great door in place for a half hours drive.

We return home, to swop cars as mum has just gotten a newer one off my aunt, and we are in the process of selling the old one.

Five minutes into the journey, a light starts flashing, and something starts juddering. Not good. We turn back, and swift consultation of the manual tells us this light means 'engine failure' we are advised to take to a Fiat dealership as soon as possible' Oh dear.

Now I'm sat at home, waiting either for the next bus to college, or my eldery great aunt to give me lift, but, given all the signs, what say I call it a day and go back to bed before something explodes?

It's Karma
You've obviously done something terrible and your whole family are being punished for it.

So what did you do? Stabbed a baby? Kicked a kitten to death? Ran over an orphan? Snogged Kaol?

It's not in your hands - you'd be fighting it to attempt to go to college.

Instead, do all the work you've got behind with... in between infinite cups of tea, and, of course, surfing porn. And b3ta.

Fiats
They always do that. The flashing light can be safely ignored.

Nothing superstitious, just that I wouldn't trust out latin cousins to wire a plug.
