Title: Do you have any jinx which always work ?
Post by: birol on Apr 28, 2004, 06:41 AM
We always move out of a house when we say we settled in !

It doesn't make a difference if it is 6 months after a move or 5 years after a move ! When we convincingly look at each other with wifey and say, we are now settled in, in no time at all we get to move ! Do you have anything similar which is unrelated but always works in this way ?

..the gas tank always needs filling on the coldest and rainy day. Hair won't stay in place for the most important events. The car needs washing on the day you have important people to take somewhere and the automatic car wash is out of order.  There are no quarters to feed the paper machine.  Well, is this what you meant?  (Life's annoying inconveniences.)

Here's one that just happened to me.

I was out running errands yesterday and when I got home I found I got one of those little cards from the post office saying the carrier tried to deliver a certified letter that needs a signature.  So I took the card to the post office today to pick up the letter.  The girl at the counter told me that they didn't have it, that the carrier was going to try to redeliver it today.  I get home to find, you guessed it, the carrier had just been to my house while I was at the post office and left another card saying I would have to go to the post office the next day to pick up the letter!   AAARRRGGG!
