It seems I have quite a lot of former friends who wound up really, really, disliking me. So I am always alert to signs of that happening again. It's nobody's fault but my own, I assure you.

supernaturally unlucky

Back among some of the first posts I made to this blog I had one called "False Hope" and another called "Another Irritating Thing".
