Friday the 13th

Many people are superstitious regarding certain things, and one of them happens to be occurring at this very moment: Friday the 13th! Are you superstitious, have you been paranoid/worried all day? It doesn't really bother me, I think it's nonsense. I spent all morning and afternoon at work, anyway... What did you do today?

Hi, Bethany1202. I was at home all day. I thought about going out but I have changed my mind. I will go out tomorrow. It started storming here about an hour ago. I was scared being that my husband wasn't home. I was in my apartment alone with my three kids. Today is my aun'ts Birthday. I wonder if you isn't too happy and thrilled about her Birthday landing on Friday the 13th?? I hope that wherever she is at, I hope that she is okay.

Friday the 13th is just another day to us. We are not superstitious or anything. My mama was and it was so funny all the things she did or said. We cannot allow things like Friday the 13th, or a black cat running across your path, or each one of you going around a pole on different, and things like that . We can't allow them to rule our lives. I do know those that do. Hope your day was great!

Friday the 13th doesn't bother me at all. In fact for us it was a good day. We have a real shortage of doctors here in northern Ontario but my hubby finally got a doctor. It's only taken 5 years.

I usually never look at the date even when i am on the computer or reading the paper so it did not occur to me that Friday was the 13th day of the month. I am not at all superstitious and have never believed in 13 as an unlucky number.For me it iis just another day and date.Well, it was a normal and uneventful day for me and it passed off without any incident or untoward happening.

Well, it's the night of August 14 here and nothing bad happened to me the whole day yesterday. I don't really believe in those nonsense superstitions including that Friday the 13th. Actually, whenever it's that day, we'd say "Hey! It's Friday the 13th, you might have a bad luck!" But, of course, we're not really serious about that because we know what to believe.

Bethany, I am superstitious about some things. It being Friday the 13th just happens to not be one of them. I hold that Karma has her way about everything and she wins...in a way some people may call this a superstition. I went out and took care of some business for my family today that is it really.

Usually on the 13th of every month I am either upset or I drop things . But today is Lefthander's Day, the one 13th I am happy. But I did drop a few things . I totally forgot it was a Friday too. Friday the 13th doesn't usually bother me.

No, I don't really believe in the superstitions involving Friday the 13th. It's just another day for me. Nothing bad has ever happened to me on Friday the 13th.

It doesn't bother me too. It's just an ordinary day for me. I guess it becomes ordinary when you don't make a fuss about the day being Friday the 13th.

I didn't even realize it was Friday the 13th until it was mentioned on the news as I was making dinner. I'm not a superstitious person anyhow, so Friday the 13th is more a curiosity to me. (We do own a black cat, though--lol)

I just treat it as a normal day to pass by. But I could still remember when I was young, I had a fall, down the stairs and sprained my leg on the day, Friday the 13th.

I'm superstitious before as my mom used to remind of not doing things on certain days or time to avoid bad things to happen but lately it seems I no longer mind. I just pray for good things to happen.
