Mechanical things don't trip me up generally, but the technology gods constantly torment me. Often things like computers don't work properly when I'm trying to use them. It's quite odd, and sometimes when I call in to a help desk the person on the other end cannot get things to work properly either.

On the other hand, the parking gods adore me. I ALWAYS get good parking spaces. Even if I'm just the passenger in the car, we get a good space. Some of my friends love taking me along with them.
