Grab your four-leaf clovers, rabbit’s feet and horseshoes and Face Your Fears!!
Friday the 13th is upon us.
Friday the 13th. It’s a superstition that goes back to the 14th century–or even earlier. But are you the type of person to buy into all of that? It’s not really one of scariest days of the year, is it? I believe it’s just another day, one that you can use to celebrate a good time with friends.
Approximately, $900 million is lost every Friday the 13th because people are scared to work and travel on this date.
So, lets forget Superstitions and Celebrate Friday the 13th…
Lets just have some harmless fun for you and your friends!
Here are 13 ideas for ways to celebrate!
- Write an “I’m glad you’re my friend” message on thirteen different friend’s Facebook pages!
- Take A Thirteen Minute Walk With Clay: It may only take you around the block, but a walk with your phone filled with Clay songs will put a smile on your face. See how far walking for thirteen minutes in one direction will take you from your house.
- Bake a batch of thirteen cookies and drop them off at a friend’s house.
- Donate $13.00 to The National Inclusion Project. If we all did that today, we could send a child to camp!
- Adopt A Black Cat!
- Call up a friend and ask if you can pick up a few items for them (like maybe, thirteen or so) from the grocery store on your way home from work.
- List thirteen songs by Clay Aiken: Wait…too easy… they must all be under three minutes and thirteen seconds.
- Stay up late and watch 13 shows on Friday!
- Copy 13 photos of Clay Aiken. Pile all the photos together and make a small Friday The 13th album just for you!
- Make a friend a baker’s dozen of their favorite cupcakes.
- Spend 13 Minutes without any distractions: Turn off the phone, the computer and the TV.
- Think of 13 people that you owe a hello to. Take a moment and write them or phone them and say hello!
- Buy a friend lunch and ask them what they feel has been the luckiest moment of their life.
Some of my ideas came from LiveAbout.
Yes…this should be a fun day!!
I would rather spend my day enjoying my friends than worrying about black cats, or 13 floors in a building.
Lets have fun!
Have you any other ideas for today?
I was born on Friday,13 (now 74 yrs old) and over the years, people thought it was fun to give me a black cat for my birthday,,,,,,,,I loved them all!
I am not superstitious so it was a normal and good day for me. All of your suggestions were really fun and interesting! The pics of Clay were funny to me,
but they were looks of fear over something. Clay has a really expressive face and that helps for his entertaining!
Thank you for the work you put in here to give us great information!
Thank you for all the pictures. I love them all. Very funny. I do not believe in superstitions. Thank you CANN.
This morning I went to the grocery store. This afternoon I raked the fallen leaves & ran the lawn mower over the rest. Then I came in and opened CANN. Oh my gosh, I forgot it was Friday the 13th. I should have stayed home in bed to be safe! Ha Ha!
I too, am not superstitious! Love all of Clay’s expressive faces, he has not afraid to show his funny side. Thank you, CANN! Happy Friday the 13th!
