Triskaidekaphobia

"Today is Friday the 13th".

That's scary, because when someone mentions that, you sometimes have the feeling things will go wrong on this day.

I guess if you try to find the downside in everything, nature has a strange way of rewarding you for your efforts, and proving you right.

Today is Saturday the 14th, but I just felt somewhat tempted, to write about the vague recollection of emotional roller-coaster I went through yesterday. I think by now you would have realised that I do have a fear, though not chronic, of the number 13. They call this fear, or phobia, 'Triskaidekaphobia'.

Strange eh? Yup, I know, but I am definitely not alone.

Funny thing about this day was that it started off bad. But it ended pretty well. I think it's just in your head... if it's going to be bad, it doesn't matter what date you're on.
