You know the other day on this blog I was talking about the number 13. A few more have crept up.
In numerology, you add numbers up to find their meanings. Well, I was looking at the original email I had gotten from the editor. It had been sent to me on 5/04/2011 at 1:57 p.m. So add 5, 4, 2, 0, 1 and 1. What do you get? 13! Then add 1, 5 and 7. Another 13! (And if you change the time to military, it reads 13:57!)
Yeah, yeah. I know. That's kind of stretching it. But isn't that freaky!
Then Wednesday I receive the agent's contract. I signed it and decided to go ahead and date it the 13th. It just seem appropriate to sign the contract on another Friday 13th. Maybe now I'll have a lot of good luck.
No. I'm not nuts. Just playing it safe by my way of thinking.
Thanks, Grandmother!

Number 13 Strikes Again!
I’ve got to tell everyone. It’s something I mentioned to Christy Wednesday and I know she thinks I’m nuts. Well, I am but that’s beside the point…the number 13 played a large part in this. Yes. That unlucky number most dread to see. It just so happens my grandmother always told me that 13 was her lucky number. She had 13 kids (how can that be lucky?), was married on the 13th and her first house number was 13 and she mentioned others I had forgotten over the years. Anyway, after having that conversation with her, I’ve never really had a fear of that number.
Back in March, I wrote a post about the number 13 and how it kept popping up. I worried it would be bad juju. I should’ve known better.
Then on April 13, I sent in my full to Avon Impulse. Yes, folks, that was a Friday. [Ooops! That was actually a Wednesday. Just as The Email was received on a Wednesday.]
Coincidence? I don’t think so. I believe my grandmother was giving me a heads up. That’s not the first time something strange like this happened.
I would love to hear if you had similar things happen to you.
Here are the links to the blogs about this.
