Paraskevidekatriaphobics

I've just now realized that it's "Friday the 13th." There is a part of me that so badly wants to do

something rebelious, something dangerous.

The sixth day of the week and the number 13 both have foreboding reputations said to date from ancient times, so their inevitable conjunction from one to three times a year portends more misfortune than some credulous minds can bear. It may be the most widespread superstition in the United States. Some people won't go to work on Friday the 13th; some won't eat in restaurants; many wouldn't think of setting a wedding on the date.

Paraskevidekatriaphobics-people afflicted with a morbid, irrational fear of Friday the 13th...incredible. Its comedic to me that that word and definition even exists! I fear many things but Friday the 13th is not one of them. I have always been intrigued by horror films and bumps in the night, there is something utterly exciting to me about getting worked up and scared over something that might or might not exist. There is always a risk, and with that risk you'll find excitement!

To all of you paraskevidekatriaphobic folk out there-I say this to you, relax and live a little bit on the wild side!
