The things that I thought were going to be a big deal are not, and the things I never considered are. For instance, I never thought about what we would do with all of our trash. This whole garbage thing is a pain! We are at a residential dock so we don't want to ask if we can use their cans, so we have been using store dumpsters. Which requires us to carry our trash bag down the street quite a ways feeling like social deviants as we heave a trash bag into a dumpster. The whole time looking over our shoulders to make sure no one is looking. I hate it!!
Deason, Dahlia, and I were on one of these trash excursions plus Target run, and while on the way home we stopped back at the dumpster to throw out the boxes from the cereal we had just purchased (so they don't fill our garbage). While we were at the dumpster I stepped on a very large piece of glass. It was so big it went through my croc and jabbed me in the middle of the foot. My whole croc filled with blood! Thankfully, we had just purchased toilet paper, and bandaids at Target. What are the odds that Deason saw Hotwheels waterproof bandaids, wanted to get them, and thank goodness I didn't say "no". So, I patched up my foot to the best of my abilities, and walked home thinking that this all might be bad karma because we didn't preform the name change ritual for our boat!!!I sent Chris to the store as soon as we got back to get a bottle of good Champagne, so we could ask the ancient gods of the sea and wind, Mighty Neptune, and Mighty Aeolus to forgive us, and accept our new boat name. Hopefully, we will have no more bad luck, or no more glass in our shoes!
