of headwinds and the spring's fresh insects

They were driven at me during my commute by a steady wind out of the south-west that seemed to time each fresh blast of bugs with my inhalations. Seeing myself in the mirror at the office, I begin to wonder why I even iron and put on a clean shirt every morning when they always wind up rumpled and bug-stained.

But it beats taking the street car!
