This Friday some people will be so paralyzed with fear they simply won't get out of bed. Others will steadfastly refuse to fly on an airplane, buy a house, or act on a hot stock tip. It's Friday the 13th, and they're freaked out.

I didnt realize it was Friday the 13th until I heard it during my morning NPR fix. The first thought that popped into my head was "This is going to be the luckiest day of the year." I immediately sent out positive thoughts, wishes and prayers for the people I care about.

And as for not getting out of bed...33 deg F and windy does make for good nappin weather.

Today was Friday the 13th and it SUCKED. Not ONE bad thing happened to be all day. I was all prepared and, as usual, it was a big bust.

Ughhh. I usually don't even notice Friday the 13th when it comes around, but yesterday certainly lived up to its reputations. Aggravation after aggravation all day.
