I know it’s irrational, but a lot of nasty shit in my life went down on a Friday the 13th, and it’s easier just to pay attention to that biased sample of events. I’m not paralyzed with fear or anything, I just feel on edge, waiting for the other shoe to drop. I’m sure there’s a very reasonable explanation for why a disproportionately large number of people are hospitalized on Friday the 13ths—like everyone feels on edge and forgets how to drive—but does it really make you feel safer on the roads to know that there’s a rational explanation for your greater odds of being smeared against the concrete median barrier? Not me.

Also, probably unrelatedly, my spidey-senses have been tingling extra spicy the past few days and I can’t shake the feeling that something’s up.
