Friday the 13th

IT’S FRIDAY, FRIDAY.. Friday the 13^th *shudder*. Stay away from black cats. Don’t walk under a ladder. Run away from broken mirrors. Or just stay inside all day, lock all the doors and hide till this day is over. Its Friday the 13^th and some people go crazy with their superstitions and I just casually laugh at them, oops. I was reading one of those free papers they give you at the train station this morning (yes sometimes I actually read a paper, I keep surprising myself) and there was this article about, and I hope I spell it right, ‘paraskavedekatriaphobia’ Yes. The fear of Friday the 13^th.

I don’t understand why people are afraid of this day and think it brings bad luck. So if you see a black cat today it’ll bring bad luck but if you see it tomorrow you’ll think it’s a cute animal? Sure. Next year I’ll just look for all the black cats, ladders and broken mirrors I can find to see if I have any bad luck that day, if I do, I’ll hide under my bed every coming Friday the 13^th.

But for me this wasn’t a bad day at all, its actually been a really good thay. Okay it isn’t even 2pm so who knows, maybe my tv will explode or something cause I saw a black cat today. So far I got tickets for Jason Mraz in November (dances through room like a crazy person) and my weekend started at 11am (also sings a song). So I have nothing to complain about, except maybe that the trains were all late but that happens almost every day so there’s no way I can blame that on Friday the 13^th.

I’m not afraid of Friday the 13^th and I’ll never be. A Friday is a Friday and I love Fridays, yes even Friday the 13^th. Friday means weekend and weekend means happy me, whether it starts on the 13^th or the 21^st. but I guess the very superstitious people among us should stay away from the black cats, ladders and broken mirrors and stay in bed all day, just to be sure.
