airplane shadows

I consider it extremely good luck to have the shadow of an airplane fall on me, and it happened again today for the second time this week.

The first shadow passing took place Wednesday morning as I sat on the couch in my living room reading The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time. A plane flew overhead and for a short time the brick wall of the Chinese Baptist Church—which my living room windows face—was briefly darkened. The second shadow past this morning after I arrived at work. I've worked here six years and this is the first time an airplane shadow fell through the skylight onto my desk.
