Friday The Thirteenth

It's Friday the 13th.

Do you care?

Any memories, either good or bad?

Totaled my dads Toyota MR2 on Friday the 13th. Stupid and 16 yo. Three of us in the car, everybody survived but one of the guys was in the hospital with broken leg and other misc breaks for about a week. Left the road at 80 MPH and hit a few trees. None of us had seatbelts on and were all extremely lucky. God must of been watching over us. According to the Dr. the only thing that saved the one guy with the broken leg from probably losing his leg was that he was wearing leather soled cowboy boot and a piece of metal was unable to pierce it but it did manage to break a few bones. I am always a little more careful on Friday the 13ths.

"Superstition aint the way" - - Stevie Ray Vaughn (covering Stevie Wonder)

Yeah man, I'm right there with 'ya.....(SRV was a God, too bad he's no longer with us.... )

Superstition has no place in my life.

On a side note, I'm in the green industry and have been out of work since before Christmas after being laid-off. Had two interviews today, one seems promising, the other was a wash. Then got two phone calls from perspective employers requesting interviews today....so if anything, Friday the the 13th is a good day in my book.....
