Friday the thirteenth is a day of luck. If you believe bad things will happen, they probably will. I didn't notice today was the thirteenth.

I used to be superstitious but today I didn't even focus on the fact that it was Friday the 13th.

Ahh I love the realism/logic of Aspies such as myself. My mom was scared to drive with me today because it is the 13th, I told her she needs some Zyprexa. I regret saying that though, now I feel bad even though she didn't really care

I used to treat every day like Friday the 13th. I was worried about injuring my mother by stepping on cracks in the ground or lines on the floor. I don't see black cats at all, really. I still throw salt over my left shoulder if I spill it. But that's about it now.
