Friday Five LIV: Very Superstitious

Christopher wrote this late at night:

1. Are you superstitious?
No, not really. I have bigger fish to fry. However, it can be fun to play with the mind of a person who is superstitious.

2. What extremes have you heard of someone going to in the name of superstition?
Wearing the same, unwashed underwear for 10 years. Not really, I can’t really think of any extreme examples. I once saw someone throw some salt over their shoulder.

3. Believer or not, what’s your favorite superstition?
The “step on a crack and break your mother’s back” has provided me endless hours of entertainment with my third/second graders. I am proud to announce that the overwhelming majority of kids are trying to not break their mother’s backs. Moms, sleep well tonight knowing that and your children are doing everything in our power to not step on a crack. Though there is this one section of pavement near the rear entrance of the school that has proven to be a sticky wicket (sp?). I apologize if some of my shorter students cannot jump the great expanse of cracks.

4. Do you believe in luck? If yes, do you have a lucky number/article of clothing/ritual?
No. God is in control.

5. Do you believe in astrology? Why or why not?
Of course. *Rolls eyes.*

Are you a sucker who does believe in such things? Feel free to tell me about it in the comments.

Just a quick note. Blogging might be light in the coming days as I go into mourning.

Please observe a moment of silence in memory of Angel.

It is official, The WB is run by idiots, or I am having a patch of bad luck, it is Friday the 13th you know.

Class dismissed!
