Wild Turkey Surprise…
Well, this has been quite the eventful week. I am now officially a co-ed again majoring in Professional Writing. We’ll see if this degree turns out to be as useless as my degree in Opera Performance. Why can’t I be passionate about accounting or real estate?
So driving home from class today, I learned something new. I learned that turkeys fly. Yes, they fly. One flew up out of a ditch in Oakland (like with the traffic in Oakland, why would a turkey want to live there?) and broke my driver side mirror. Unfortunately, my husband’s car is dead and has been so for a week because we can’t afford to fix it. But now its illegal to drive my car because I have no mirror. Now if Garth’s Saturn were working, I could drive and get a mirror…sigh…you get the picture.
Damn that turkey anyway…

…I guess as a country girl, the knowledge that turkeys fly is kind of a “duh” thing.
I’m sorry your mirror got broken.
I hope you can afford to fix it soon, or that you can affotd a bus pass (or that you go to Pitt and get free fare.)
Good luck. ♥
You can go to your local junkyard and get a mirror pretty cheap. I think they are fairly easy to put on yourself. My husband did it a few months ago when his car was sideswiped on our street. You can even call them to see if they have the part or if they can get one. Hope this helps.
I thought it was mostly turkeys that live in Oakland …
