Don’t Blame ME …Blame the Day. Because It’s Friday the 13th!

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Richard Weisser Realty

Don’t Blame ME …Blame the Day. It’s Friday the 13th!It’s Friday the 13th and it’s the day that we all get a free pass from responsibility and accountability/

And even though Friday the 13th isn’t any different from a Tuesday the 13th or a Saturday the 13th, lore and superstition provide us with a built-in excuse for anything that goes awry today!

Which is good news for me; because lately some weird and unusual things have occurred that don’t seem to have any explanation other than being the catastrophic result of the ill winds of bad fortune blowing in my direction.

So at least for today, nothing that happens is my fault!

Because it’s Friday the 13th!
