What’s your attitude to Friday the 13^th?

My attitude is perverse—it’s usually a lucky or, at the least, neutral day for me.

My sister says I was born perverse (as in contrary), which I cannot deny. It’s not intentional; I don’t think about it; it’s just the way I am.

For the heck of it I looked Friday the 13^th up on Wikipedia and learned that it’s relatively modern, with no references before the 1800s, in spite of what you saw in The Da Vinci Code.

Did you know that if the first day of a month falls on Sunday it will contain a Friday the 13^th?

Good things happen to me on Friday the 13^th; for instance,

• I closed the three largest deals I’ve ever done on Friday the 13^th in two different years of a previous 13 year career.
• I found two of the three houses I’ve owned on Friday the 13^th.

How do you feel about Friday the 13^th?

What has happened to you on Friday the 13^th?
