    It's my sister's birthday today, so yes, it's a bad day for me as I have to shell out and make an international phone call; half of it wasted listening to her spawn making gurgling noises. Oh joy!

    3 times a year.

    Christmas, New Year & her birthday. She calls me on my birthday (and maybe Christmas & New Year too).

    No, its a great sunny, autumnal day here (Must be something to do with Dr A going back to LOS). I'm going for a walk down the pier later.

    I've never understood why Friday 13th is so scary for some folks... I treat it just like any other day...

    Friday the 13th - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    It's my ex-g/f's birthday today. I sent her a "Happy Birthday" SMS. I think I may reap some bad luck from that.

    No problems for me yet today, on the way home from Nong Khai today i passed what was left of a large truck that had been parked wheels upwards in a ditch by a Thai stunt driver. He was standing nearby looking dazed and confused, maybe he did not know what day it was?

    I quite often forget what year it is so the chances of me noticing that it is a particular day is pretty slim. Even I had noticed I wouldn't have given it much thought.

    I am in awe of Friday 13th, it must be a terrible day

    mind you, I flew into Bkk and onto CM on that inauspicious day; all that happened was that the plane was 30 minutes late
