A few days ago, as I opened an email thread, gmail suggested several links to me including one for excavator grapples. That link made me go o_O, because lo, I hadn't been talking about excavator grapples. I wasn't even sure I knew what an excavator grapple WAS. So I googled, just in case, and Was Enlightened.

The next morning, three excavators showed up in the street where I work. No, I am not making this up. And then this morning, as I was crossing the street, I narrowly escaped Death By Excavator Grapple. (The grapple missed my head by a few inches. I think the construction worker was as scared as I was.)

Oh gmail, dear gmail, tell me my future. *checks gmail links frantically*

There are as we speak SEVEN excavators on the block where I work, and one of them is digging a Deep Hole of Accident Waiting to Happen right in front of my school.

The school's been shaking off and on all day. Between the vibration and the noise, it feels like the great big dentist in the sky is trying to fix a cavity in my school's mouth with a Giant Drill of Vibrating Doom.

I am not in a good mood today. *grumps*

NOW IT WANTS TO SELL ME SWIMWEAR.

How does it know I am staying at a hotel with a giant swimming pool this weekend? HOW?

My husband mentioned that he would wear David Tennant's Doctor Who coat, even though he doesn't like coats, in general. Two minutes later, a "Buy Your Own Doctor Who coat!" link popped up in my gmail.

I hadn't posted or e-mailed or anything about it. IT HEARD HIM.

Sadly, budget constraints are constraining, so no coat for him at the moment. :D
