Question of the Day, Friday, July 13

Good morning and Happy Friday the 13th!

Are you superstitious?

I don't think that Friday the 13th is a particularly bad day, nor do I fear walking under ladders or anything like that. But I do worry about things that go bump in the night (unless they're cats, that is).

Yes!!! I'm in theatre - we're superstitious. We never mention the name "Macbeth" in a theatre, as it's really bad luck. We say "the Scottish play". There are all sorts of theatre superstitions, which I totally buy into.

I'm also a huge baseball fan, and am very superstitious about wearing the same shirt to games, wearing the same cap - I changed hats for a Mets game on Sunday, and they lost - the first time they lost a game I attended this season....doh...my fault!!!

Yup.....race trackers (and anyone else in the sportainment industry) are VERY superstitious. We have lucky and unlucky clothing, we follow weird rituals and on and on!!!LOL

No. I've never even carried a rabbit's foot (those things gross me out!--poor bunnies!). I put my trust in God, so I don't need to worry about being unlucky.

I've actually had a good day.  The baby slept about 8 1/2 hours!

No we're not superstitious - but or course we joke about it on Friday the 13th.   Oh- Paul was born on a Friday, the 13th  Now that makes me wonder!!!!

Not at all.  I also have more black cats then people have cats for the most part-6 Blacks

Well, I was never superstitious about Friday 13th before. In fact, right before leaving work today I thought "well, today wasn't the BEST day, but nothing bad happened". Then, when I call DH at work to let him know I was leaving, I found out he was laid off. So....I might be superstitious now....

I do the "knock on wood" thing, but I'm not sure why, maybe just a habit? I'm not really superstitious otherwise.
