It's odd that I just noticed
It is the thirteenth day of May
The day is also Friday
It's unlucky some may say

Watch out for all the black cats
And those ladders off  the rack
Don't step on any sidewalk joints
Or you may break you mother's back

It is superstitious Friday
When it's triskaidekaphobic too
It doesn't mean a thing to me
What does it mean to you?

Are you being extra are careful
To abide by all the rules
Does superstition guide your life
Like other superstitious fools

For me, it was Thursday the 13th…lol! I was watching pk kids outside. All the kids made it in from the playground but I was soaked wet with the sprinkler! Thankfully it was a hot day and I stayed in sun. Coming inside, my office was in cafeteria where kids were released for carpool. A boy came in, threw his book bag and took me off my fight. Quite a day!! LOL
