    So I was reading up on some great Friday the 13th superstition on Wikipedia (cause the internet is always right) and found a line that stated Friday the 13th is a bad day to begin new projects!

    So much for my plans to put on my lift tonight! :D
    Any other good Friday the 13th/ general superstitions?

    It's a good day medically, or so I'm told.

    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.
    The only reason it's a bad idea to start anything on Friday the 13th (hell any Friday for that matter) is because that is when weekenditis starts to set in. Consequently, this also initiates "I don't give a f*ck" (AKA IDGAF) disease. Now, it is a common fact the IDGAF disease is proportional to weekenditis by a factor of 3. Weekenditis also becomes progressively worse as time approaches 5 PM, thus causing IDGAF disease to reach critical stages. However, the cure for these conditions is 5:01 PM...when the weekend officially starts. The time may vary for some folks. (It's actaully 4 and 4:01 PM for myself). So to be safe, don't start anything on a Friday unless it is 5:01 PM.

    Valid point but I plan on starting tonight and finishing tomorrow. Ample doses of alcohol and BBQ shall be administered and possibly some gigged frogs!
    Until the "official" weeked I will probably develop a special type of IDGAF disorder commonly known as SW2FIG (See What Two Fuggs I Give) that will lead me to the end of my work day.
