Happy Friday the 13th!

I sure hope you guys all have a great and lucky day. I am sure some of you are really nervous about what day it is! I have never let Friday the 13th bother me much. I do worry about black cats but I read a long time ago in certain country's ( not the US ) that a black cat walking in front of you is good luck. I even had a black cat - Yoda - for the longest time because I thought it would counter act any black cat that walked in front of me. But I am not too worried about today.. However the phobia of Friday the 13th is called "friggatriskaidekaphobia" (are you slowly trying pronounce that in your head right now too?). 17 to 21 million people in the U.S. have "friggatriskaidekaphobia", according to the Stress Management Center and Phobia Institute in North Carolina. {Info gathered from HERE}.

We will have three Friday the 13th's in 2012, the most you can have in one calendar year (one in April and another July). It is a great year for all who have "friggatriskaidekaphobia". Those who have the phobia will most likely stay indoors and out of trouble. The U.S. economy loses up to 900 million dollars every time there is a Friday the 13th—many people avoid business deals, or even work altogether, on the allegedly doomed date, according to some estimates.

Are you out n' about today?

I'm not but it has nothing to do with Friday the 13th. Instead, I am still not feeling too good. Whenever I have a cold, I always seem to wake up feeling a little better but as the day goes on, I start feeling worse and worse. I'm not really that bad but I know I for sure have a cold right now. I keep eating oranges thinking the vitamin C will help. Who know's maybe it helping.. because a cold is a lot better than the flu. Its sunny out but the high is in the low 40's and its not suppose to get any warmer. I think the cold weather sucks!

Wow.. Just seen on the news where Joran Van Der Sloot ( You know the guy who alledgy killed Natalie Holloway and also that other woman Stephanie Flores ) and they gave him 28 years. He is to be released June 2038. I'm not surprised.. he has gotten away with so much. Remember his father was a judge, who killed himself.. After he is released he is to leave the country of Peru and then come here for wire fraud and extortion charges too. I mean that means he will be in his 50's when that happens. You know.. I have kept up with this a lot and it really breaks my heart for the parents of those girls. Natalie Holloway's parents have split up over this, and just yesterday a judge declared her dead. Her mother had a fit about it because she is holding on to the hope that maybe her daughter is still alive. This guy has hurt so many people..and he should never be free. People like that, don't change. Just glad this Friday the 13th was his judgement day. Bet he's not feeling so lucky today!

My phone was plugged in all night and it still didn't charge. I think my reliable blackberry is about to be done. I am wanting a new phone anyway but I like to hold on to things as long as I can. I want the new Blackberry Torch. My mom just got the new iphone 4 and she is in love. I like Apple.. The ipad is nice but I have figured out that I prefer just a regular pc. Super happy for her though because she REALLY needed a new phone! Mine is charging right now and seems to be holding that charge. I don't know what happened to cause it not to charge being it was plugged in and connected to my phone but it didn't. Scott and I don't have a house phone. Only cells so its really important to make sure they work and charge!

I don't know what I am planning on doing today. I have some emails to read over and reply to and I have a few things to do around the house. I don't really feel like going out. I should go to the grocery because we are starting to run low on things but I don't want to spread germs around and I also don't want to pick up any new ones either. So probably staying in doors all day.. I also have more reviews on new 2012 products and a few other ones that I have been running late on. I appreciate all the emails and feedback that you guys have been sending in. Most of you who have tried the Revlon Photoready Airbrush foundation totally agree with what I wrote in → THIS POST ← .  I will be getting back to everyone who emailed me by the end of the weekend. A lot of emails will go out today but I wanted to give myself some extra time just in case!

Well I hope you all have a very LUCKY day.. Try to find the good in Friday the 13th!

I am going to light the fireplace and warm it up in here before I do anything else!
