String

It’s kite flying weather.  Everyone is out flying them.  It is fun to do, but dangerous for people on Motorcycles.  My husband has to put up this little antenna that was put there to catch kite string while he is riding.  A number of times Motorcyclists have been seriously injured or killed by kite string cutting their neck.  Well, yesterday I was driving home from picking Ben up from school and I ran into a kite string.  Well I thought it was just the string but by the time I got home...I had the whole kite hanging off the back of my car and a 100 yards of string. 
Ok, side note.  2 minutes before I ran over the kite string, I just asked myself “now where am I going to buy string for stringing popcorn to decorate the tree”, then not a second later I had a wad a string in my hand.  Funny huh?  Then when I got to my house, a kid came around the corner and grabbed the kite and went into the house next to mine… no smile…nothing.  I said “sua” which I think meant “yours”, maybe he was pissed that I drove away with his kite, but I thought thank god I was in a car cuz that little shit could have killed someone and then I thought “String”!!!!!
