Fore! May 30, 2008
Posted by spacemom in : Life...otherwise, She Blinded me with Science , trackbackMy car was hit yesterday. It was the most unexpected collision. There a was driving down the road between Lexington and Belmont (which I never know the name of because each town here HAS to change the name of the street when it gets to them. “ooh! look! Main street!” “No! we want to call it “The Great Road”" “NO! It’s the “Really Nice, But Not So Great Road” in our town”) Anyway, Here I was, just driving along and THUNK… A golf ball came flying out of the country club and nailed my side door. Good Lord! Luna and I both jumped about 20 feet! I watched the offending object bouncing along in the road and all I could think was “Golf balls bounce?”
Sigh
I actually have 5 pages of my 8 page paper! I am so proud of myself. I need to add FIGURES because we all know that FIGURES make the difference. They fill space! And they are FIGURES! Because NOBODY wants to just read 8 pages of text on spacecraft operations. Trust me on that. We want to see FIGURES! Now I just have to find some…FIGURES! that is!
I just spell checked this post and I had ONE WORD misspelled. Which one? and. Yes folks, I can not spell the simple conjunctive word and.

You got beamed by a golf ball? Talk about unexpected. Thank goodness it didn’t cause you to swerve into oncoming traffic or anything else potentially awful. Yikes…
You obviously don’t play golf or you would know how far they fly and how crazily they can bounce. Glad you are all right. Hope the car isn’t too badly dented. Thinking of you and wishing you the best
