Are you hiding under the covers all day today? Avoiding making decisions? Not traveling any more than you absolutely have to? It’s probably due to your friggatriskaidekaphobia–fear of Friday the 13th. Blame it on the Norse goddess or the movie series, or laugh at people who have this fear. Many people actually do experience it.
Wonder how it started? What it’s history is or what myths surround it? If more thefts, accidents, crime, etc. happen on Friday 13? Before venturing any further into this day, read the International Business Times article on the topic (go to http://www.ibtimes.com/friday-13th-history-origins-myths-superstitions-unlucky-day-395108).
