flight

As I was quietly reclining watching television
a flying thing hovered near the light then flew directly into my forehead.
It was a beetle.
Call me paranoid, but that seemed a bit
deliberate.

To be paranoid , is a curse.

What? What are you saying? Am I cursed? ;)

Actually it made me laugh, when I saw it was a beetle. It's difficult to feel threatened or even mildly offended by a beetle.

My skills at the paper airplane are as bad as in real life. My best shot after the usual back-over-the-head-flip was: Distance-77.4 Maximum Altitude-14.16 Time Aloft-8.05 and Revolutions 1.207

A handy tip if yer wanna turn a skull-draining memo into a soaring thing of beauty. Paperclips make great nose weights for an office paperplane with a wingspan that's turned out too lofty and with not enough pull forwards and down.

Remember, gravity is an energy - that you can sail.

Clippers of the open plan and cubicle?

That tip is a thing of beauty. I will try it.
