vendredi 13 juillet 2007
I was told yesterday, by one of my coworkers, that many people in France believe that Friday the 13th can be an extremely unlucky OR lucky day. That a lot of people will buy lottery tickets, etc. hoping that they will have good luck. Alas and alack, nothing super special happened to me, but nothing bad either. Another blog states that the first few events of the day will determine how it will be. Hmm, so I guess my day should have been bad, since the train was half an hour late (again). However, when I got to work, it still wasn't open yet, so everyone was waiting outside anyway. Just an interesting difference between France and America I thought. So I hope that even if you didn't win the lottery, your vendredi treize wasn't bad.
