Friday the 13th!

In numerology, the number twelve is considered the number of completeness, as reflected in the twelve months of the year, twelve signs of the zodiac, twelve hours of the clock, twelve tribes of Israel, twelve Apostles of Jesus, twelve gods of Olympus, etc., whereas the number thirteen was considered irregular, transgressing this completeness. There is also a superstition, thought by some to derive from the Last Supper or a Norse myth, that having thirteen people seated at a table will result in the death of one of the diners.

I’m not superstitious, I’m a woman who believes in science, in cause and effect and superstition is overrated to me… but today was about to change my mind!! That makes it sound like a huge deal, which it is not, and I’m sure I’ll wake up tomorrow and laugh my ass off on this entire matter but I’ve had it today.

I woke up in the morning waiting for my man so we could go out for breakfast; apparently waking up was the mistake that ruined my day all along! I knew he had pulled an all nighters at work, I know he had to drop his parents to the airport early in the morning, so what are the chances of him waking up… hhhmmm…….. GO FIGURE!

By the time I was ready to go back to sleep, my phone started ringing, I knew I shouldn’t pick up! I knew I needed and deserved to sleep those three hours, in total I only slept for 3 hours in the morning anyways, yet I picked up! I answered! And the girls dragged me off for brunch … all I heard about is the damn party and hangover!!! My head felt like I was hung-over my self just listening to them rattle on.

As if that wasn’t enough I only got to see my man for 15 minutes before we took off the blanket drive, ten of which I spent sleeping on his shoulder because I was too exhausted!! We had to go to a refugee camp to give out blankets as part of the winter blanket drive, there was an excruciating pain hitting my back all morning yet I showed up at out meeting point knowing that out of the 10 people meant to go out to the blanket drive, only 3 showed up!

I actually feel like crying… and I know I’m being a big baby and a huge brat … but I swear it’s just one of those days! Am going to laugh it off first thing in the morning cause I always do, but for not complaining and writing about it is the first step of relief!
