bad luck always seems to come in clusters, matey.

Rough with the smooth.

Take the bad with the good.

hmmmmm - I've run out of cliches but I'm sure there are many many more....

i don't think it's entirely coincidental...

i reckon future trouble builds up in the 'quiet' times; possibly lack of investment in your home, car, and dare i say relationships.

this year started off quietly for me, but then 5 days into my new job (started on Valentines Day?!)
and i have my worst car accident ever resulting in 8k of damage to my civic type-R...

i think Lady Luck was a bit unfair to me on this one.

I bet it had more fur than the cat! Had it got to the liquid stage by then? Once found a sealed thermal coffe mug which had completely separated into solid and clear liquid. It was only when the surface was disturbed that the smell erupted!
