@Lindac,
You were a little clumsy or the plate was a little slippery, and you dropped it. Overly emotional, you burst into tears. This all happened on the rather arbitrary date we call the beginning of the year.
Period.
It means nothing.
You're fine.
If you want it to mean something, then I hereby declare you will, in 2016, always have enough wiper fluid in your car.
And so it has been said, and so it shall be written.
