ok, i skipped last week’s cause i wasn’t feeling very daring or risky. i’ll give this week’s a go. for reference, each week the friday five can be found here.
1. Are you superstitious?
no, knock on wood. seriously, not in any real sense.
2. What extremes have you heard of someone going to in the name of superstition?
nothing outlandish. some folks won’t say something for fear that it will come true… or not come true depending on their superstition. that’s about it.
3. Believer or not, what’s your favorite superstition?
there’s this episode of reba where barbara jean, who is quite superstitious, does this spitting and dancing thing every time someone talks about death. kerri and i laughed hard.
4. Do you believe in luck? If yes, do you have a lucky number/article of clothing/ritual?
sure. some people just seem to have good luck: the ball bounces their way, etc. some have bad, but most of us have no luck. (not sure that came out right?) i don’t think there’s much you can do to influence luck. it’s like being a klutz (something i am well-versed in). either your lucky (good or bad), or your not.
that said, i always choose #9 if given the option. also, i hang on to a high school legacy of choosing #69 and avoiding #96 (it’s polar opposite) when possible. .::cue juvenile beavis and butthead laughter::.
5. Do you believe in astrology? Why or why not?
just so we know what we’re talking about, astrology = using birth dates to predict the future, personality type, determine compatibility. a definite no to the first (can’t buy one’s birth date dictating life). there might be something to the last two, but i’ve never paid much attention to it.
for fun i thought i’d participate in this week’s blogger idol.
