Friday the 13th
Are you suffering from Paraskevidekatriaphobia: Fear of Friday the 13th??? How do you mean, although fewer people drive their cars, there are more accident-related hospital admissions on this day?
I'd always heard it termed as tricadeccaphobia, the fear of the number thirteen. Nope. Not afraid. It's a self fulfilled prophecy in my opinion if you believe it, then you will work it on yourself. NELISHIA http://journals.aol.com/nelishianatl/WISHINGANDHOPING/
Your cat makes me laugh... it does not scare me :D No, I don't believe in Fridays 13th even if I had some bad ones in the past I think the No 13 can also be very lucky So it is 50/50... basically... it is a myth :D Valerie
With the luck I have had this week, I should fear everyday of the week...but I don't, LOL...tomorrow is just another day for me...nothing more. Thanks for the comment about my son...and our woes...once AGAIN! Things will get better...take care, Joyce
Nope..not me ! My life is in God's hands. I'm also not afraid of black cats (I've had 2 of them in my life time), to step on a crack, open an umbrella inside or walk under a ladder. Linda in Washington state
I'm not phobic about Friday the 13th.......but I won't drive my car on April Fool's Day. Hugs, Gina http://journals.aol.com/motoxmom72/j-land-convention/ http://journals.aol.com/motoxmom72/GinasWeigtLossJourney
Is it Friday the 13th today? I hope it gets no worse than yesterday with the police chopping down the neighbor's door. Nice illustration! Gerry http://journals.aol.com/gehi6/daughters-of-the-shadow-men/
Thats because no-one wants to die on that day so any signs of problems, they hit the hospitals..lol...Paranoia and numerology are symptoms of too much TV...
