davidd's A Doll A Day 2019

[davidd]

15 September – Janie (Smart Doll Harmony) makes plans... which is pointless, as any

plans are certain to go awry (as she soon discovered)

16 September – Invasion of the Giant Descendants!

17 September – Damage Inspection

You're kidding me, right?

Today started out with one of the little spring bars that hold the watch strap on my wristwatch falling out and disappearing. Annoying, but no big deal.

Then there was a ginormous effing rattlesnake in the yard. Like, it would have been easy to accidentally step on because of its camouflage coloring, but not so easy to step on because it was so freakin' huge!.

(Rattlesnakes, for those of you who do not live in North America, are venomous pit vipers. Highly venomous, in the case

of the Western Diamondback, which of course is the variety found around here.)

Then the auto repair shop informed us that the air conditioning compressor in our 2015 Subaru Forester is failing, and that repairing it will cost around $1100 USD.

Then, as we were driving home from the auto repair shop, a ginormous... because today seems to be a day for ginormous wildlife... mule deer crashed in to our car! I was driving, but no, I did not hit the deer; the deer hit the car, caving in the rear door and the rear fender on the driver's side.

The deer appeared to be okay, it kind of bounced off the car and just kept going, leaping over a fence and disappearing in to the woods.
