Last friday night, Ms. Tinker & I were watching The Dead Files. And chatting a bit about how negative energy can become attached to a place, or an object. And I said boy, it'd really stink if one of my bikes had bad mojo, and has been causing most of our bad luck! That kind of tripped a switch for her, and she said there IS something in the basement. She's a 'sensitive' too, not nearly as much as Amy Allen is on that show! But, it's kind of like periferal vision for her. She spent about a half hour down there on saturday morning, and came back up, handed me a pair of pedals. "It's these!" It was a pair of no names, not as fancy as teardrops, just rust and worn out blocks. She said they were, in fact, trying to project on to other parts down there! I find it amazing, yet plausible, that negative energy can get attached to something like that. Also, there was an old horseshoe over the basement door, and it was siiting points down, which is also a no-no. I't said that the good luck will dissipate out, and it'll actually become a magnet for bad luck! I'd taken it down not long afetr we moved in four yeras ago, mainly because it wasn't nailed or anything, and I was afraid it'd end up falling on my head! 2012 was a terrible year for me, so regardless of superstition, I wasn't about to let a pair of ratty pedals stand in my way! They went in the trash, as well as the horseshoe. She checked the basement out later, and said it was a lot better! I went down myself, and it seemed 'brighter', like more light was coming in somehow. And it did indeed feel 'lighter'. She doesn't feel uneasy doing laundry at night, or that something's trying to make her trip on the stairs anymore! I also had a job interview yesterday, which went very well, sounds like a great company, and I have a good feeling I'll get that call back in a couple days! I guess the moral of the story is, if something gives you a bad vibe, best let it go! -Adam
