Friday the 13th

Something really strange happened to me today, I went into my boss's office for some papers, so he was signing something and asked me about the date, so I automatically told him Friday the 13th, and he actually stopped what he was doing and stared hard at me and said how can it be that today is Friday 13th ( which is considered bad by supertitious people ) and that tomorrow would be Saturday 14th which is Valentine's day, so of course I told him that being muslim we do not believe in either one of the above , and I am sure that he must have started thinking that this was just me being a snob, so anyway as soon as I sat at my desk I started getting this feeling that maybe he was superstitious and I kind of made fun of him and that it wasn't a clever thing to do ( me and my big mouth ...... ) I should really think before I open my mouth but, what can you do this is human nature , and of course you guessed right, when he went out for lunch his car skidded because of the frozen roads and he ended up in the ditch, so the first thing he did was call me and yep you are right gave me the stick. As he got into the office, everybody went running to ask him what exactly happened and I was the only one being chicken and hiding in my office, but of course I insisted that this was just his bad luck and nothing to do with Friday the 13th.
The good thing is that I am looking forward to the long weekend and my plans with some friends to take the kids out skiing .
So long and have a good weekend everybody !
