Mirror, mirror, on the seat.
Ha!
The other day, I came home from work and pulled in next to Sue's car. I glanced over and noticed the rear-view mirror sitting on the front seat.
When I asked her about it, she said it had fallen.
"You mean, it just fell, just dropped from the window, just like that?'' I said.
"Yes,'' she replied, ''that's exactly what happened...''
I was about to take her at her word, for this is indeed a world of strangeness and anomaly, but perhaps she detected a note of skepticism playing across my face.
"...right after I accidentally hit it with my umbrella,'' Sue said, eyes downcast, a sheepish smile on her lips.
"What are you, six years old?'' I said, laughing. You couldn't just say that first?''
It's good to know that the mature one can slip into pre-adolescent responsibility avoidance now and again.
God knows, it's where I spend most of my time.

I really like that woman. I've never met her, but from your blogs and writings in the paper, she seems honest,funny, PATIENT, and loving. You're a lucky guy.
