flkjklg&*^*(O&* DOGS!

No that's not a typo - that's my kind way of inserting an explative while keeping this blog PG rated. Was on a lovely drive home from dropping Saoirse off at school, had my cappucino, listening to iTunes (since the radio here is crap) and some shite dog (aka tut tut/rickshaw) clipped my side mirror! Bastard - their idea of signaling is the driver and their passengers holding their hands out the side for whatever direction they're turning and not from the furthermost lane either, so thankfully the whole thing didn't come off the brand new car, just the mirror, wonder if the guy's hand got nicked in the process. Anyway, I've become most reliant on those side mirrors, much more so than ever in the US and I'm afraid of what Honda will charge to replace. Ugh. There goes the morning...
