Most people that I am talking with are emphasizing today's day. It is not that special, but they perceived the day as an omen. For the reason that today is Friday the 13th in my country. During my younger years, I always thought it was a scary day because of movies that showed bad things happening on this particular day. As the years went by, I was treated as normal.
Are you that superstitious?

@Shavkat I grew up with the stories. The only thing about walking under laders and mirriors I ever cared about is, getting cut by glass I can't see or not know who or what could be on the ladder. Black cats, I used to have two. Left one behind when I moved to Daytona, and we rehomed the other because he wasn't getting along with our other cats. When George's driving again and more recovered, we might get another black cat. We're hoping to find a bonded pair, so we don't have the drama of two cats getting along to add to the stress of bringing them into a new home.

@kaylachan I used to have a black cat. My grandmother called my attention about the bad luck of having one. I just told her that we cannot control having a kitten like this.

I am superstitious in some ways but don't care about the number 13.

Not much anymore. Seemed like today was just another Friday. I had even forgotten it was the 13th. One of favorite sayings is "if I didn't have "bad luck" I'd have none at all."
Good things and bad things happen to people no matter what date it is...
