friday XIII

I didn't realize today was "Friday the 13th" until the internet told me (we're tight like that). Though not one for superstitions I was reading an article on Huffington Post concerning some of the various legends around the number 13. And then I came across this one:

"Blame your parents: If you have 13letters in your name, you're said to have the devil's luck. Like [Charles Manson]."

Hmm. Let me count.

Yup, 13. Thanks, mom and dad.

  2. Just your luck--I have 12 letters, Matt and Dad have 14. If only we'd left out the 'h' [Megan] or added that extra 'a'[Meaghan], you'd be off the hook!
