Oh god this is really gonna show my anally retentive Monicaesque side but I have 2 things bout getting out of bed in the morning....I only get up when the hour matches the minutes....example being 7.27 or 7.37 or 7.47 or my fav 8.08. I like symmetry in life...:o the other thing is that I always put my right foot on the ground first coz I believe my day will be better if I put my right foot forward.....god I must be the saddest person alive!

I also believe that whatever bad or hurtful things you do to people come back at you 3 times (wicca law) so I try to be nice all the time!

I do the greeting of magpies, the not walkin under ladders and wishing on a black cat crossing my path stuff too.

I love the number 13 (or numbers adding up to 13) tho and feel it brings me luck.

Can I get in the taxi with ya Joe??

I have a weird thing for even numbers, odd numbers just seem wrong for some reason, except for 5 and 7!

The number 4 goes into all my lottos, raffles etc....

If I'm late for a match, even by 30 secs, I won't go in, no matter what the match.

TAXI

I agree on the even numbers things....told my now ex husband (I wonder why he is ex....???:eek: :D ) that I wanted an even number of kids so it would have to be 2 and if my second pregnancy had resulted in twins I would have had to have another one.

Of course I will win coz the numbers 7, 11, 13 and 17 will come up in the lotto tomoro.

I'm not superstitous as such but I never back my own teams to win. Often the odds are too short anyway but I just never do.

If I get two tickets for a game, then I'll always keep the odd numbered ticket for myself. Don't know why, just always have done.

Also, if I play Lotto, I'll never watch the draw live.

Me too! I somehow always wake up at 6.27 rather than 6.30 cos i somehow think im going to have a good day if i do that. I always pick 7 in my lotto numbers and somehow think 7's me lucky number. (Hence the 7 at the end of my name. Means something dont know why!) TAXI!

NOOOOOO!!!!!! 6.27 is just wrong! It should be 6.26 or 6.36 when you get up!

13 is and always will be my lucky number. I used to wear it all the time when I played football, even the odd time I started. :o

I can't sleep if the curtains or blinds are pulled all the way down. I actually go mad bout it.

If you've got XP as your windows operating system, then you've got it. Just click on 'start', then'programs' then 'games'.

Bridges and tunnels are public places - not many people breed in them. Now breathing is another story altogether.
