Triskaidekaphobia anyone?

Wakey wakey sleepy heads, and indeed prepare yourself for your very own large slice of Friday. Yes, yes I know it may well be Friday the 13th, and for some bizarre reason some people still enter this day with dread and foreboding. I even heard of someone who a colleague of mine used to work with, that after once having a fall and breaking his leg on a Friday the 13th always made sure to book that particular day off work to spend their whole day under the duvet to avoid any shenanigans. Nothing wrong with booking a day off to spend in bed all day of course, just don't do it because of a silly superstition! Although, sadly during one of these days under his duvet, the water tank in the man's loft sprung a leak and his entire bedroom ceiling collapsed upon him in a flood of water! Sad, funny, and yet true story! I'm sure there is probably an awesome moral to that story, I just can't quite put my finger on it.

Still, I suppose if you are in the mind frame that bad things are going to happen to you just because it's a certain day, the chances are you are more likely to notice any bad things, no matter how small they may be, and put the blame on a random date! Thankfully most of us do not suffer from Triskaidekaphobia and just see the 13th as just another gorgeous Friday!

So don't sit back and hide in the shadows today, if bad things are going to happen today, chances are they would of happened anyway even if the date had been Tuesday the 10th! (You can never really fully trust a Tuesday of course) So fling back the duvet and bounce around your bedroom, today is Friday, it will be a good day! It will be a celebration of joy and life in abundance all day! So let's grab it and make to most of all it has to offer us!
