I have spent today walking on eggshells. I have tried desperately not to do anything that might invite retribution from the karma pixies. They like balance, you see; it's a yin-yang sort of thing. Whenever something good happens there must be an equivalent restorative downside elsewhere.

So I have spent the day trying my absolute best to ensure that any karmic-balance restoring does not come my way, because if it does it will be a bloody corker to make up for the positive swing my life has taken. I have a theory (untested) that if I can maintain the world as it is right now for long enough, that THIS will become the default setting, and the balance will always re-set to this.

So, to placate the karma pixies, I have a plan. For the next few days I shall spend an appropriate part of each day patting rabid old ladies on the head, and helping dogs to cross the road.

Some time not too far distant, I intend to hit the town. I hope it doesn't hit back.

In my humble experience...

...it's not the Karma Pixies that give one trouble, it's the Happy Harpies in truth who do so much to take your attention that that you trip on obvious things. Of course the upside is that Happy Harpies seem to protect you from minor pain events as well, so it won't hurt when you trip on the obvious paving flag that everyone else noticed, but it won't be the Karma Pixies' fault - they've definitely decided that you've got enough in the bank, after all, only they can unleash the Happy Harpies.

*wink*

Glad to see you so beset mon ami :-)
