	Messages 1 2 3  Friday the 13th Valentines Day Saturday the 14th. by tucsonmike on 13 February 2009 12:54pm   Wonder if there will be any significance for some. This is an interesting combination that only happens once every few years.   Re: Friday the 13th Valentines Day Saturday the 14th. by peripatetically on 13 February 2009 2:30pm   Well, I hope I have good luck counting my birdies today! I've already received a few Valentine cards. . Good luck and lots of love to everyone in the Palinite Pod!   Re: Friday the 13th Valentines Day Saturday the 14th. by tucsonmike on 13 February 2009 7:28pm   Hope it is a great Valentines Day for all here.   Re: Friday the 13th Valentines Day Saturday the 14th. by mrsthing on 13 February 2009 10:05pm   I got some gorgeous roses from my husband this morning! He bought them at the food store in town, but they're top-quality roses. We're going out to dinner later tonight (long, boring story). We often go out the night before or after, because restaurants deliberately jack up the prices on Valentine's Day. I'm not picky; dinner out and roses are nice ANYTIME! :-)   Re: Friday the 13th Valentines Day Saturday the 14th. by kazzzz on 13 February 2009 10:44pm   VD...Money making waste of time rubbish!! *ducks* As for the 13th, I had a really good day! Actually, Pats, Judy, I'm jealous! Not a razoo here.   Re: Friday the 13th Valentines Day Saturday the 14th. by peripatetically on 13 February 2009 11:46pm   Here, Kaz--- a red creme egg . Toss!   Re: Friday the 13th Valentines Day Saturday the 14th. by elina on 14 February 2009 5:19am   Happy Valentine's day to all of you fellow Palinites! :)   Re: Friday the 13th Valentines Day Saturday the 14th. by mrsthing on 14 February 2009 11:33am   Thank you, Elina! Friday the 13th's only unlucky occurrence was that when I was taking my daughter to the doctor, I got off the highway to try to get around a traffic snarl, and got into an even worse one, and was late enough that we had to see a different doctor that I don't like as much. Barely enough to register on the Whine-o-meter. Had a lovely dinner out--filet mignon for $30! And it was cooked perfectly, too. Yum. The benefit of years of dieting is that I can no longer finish an entire restaurant meal in one sitting, so I get to enjoy it twice.   Re: Friday the 13th Valentines Day Saturday the 14th. by peripatetically on 14 February 2009 1:47pm   Happy VD to all, even my sweetie, Kaz. Sorry, but you are MY Valentine all year 'round. (But I didn't buy you a gift 'cause I know it would upset you. :o ) xxxx I'm happy to report that nothing happened to me in the bad luck dept. on Fri. the 13th.   Re: Friday the 13th Valentines Day Saturday the 14th. by Spursfan on 14 February 2009 2:26pm   My husband had a job interview yesterday morning (yes - Friday 13th!!). He says it went ok, but he won't hear anything from them until Monday. I went with him for the ride (it was in Newcastle-under-Lyme) and on the way back we couldn't understand why there was a hold-up. Until, that is, we drove past two cars who had gone into each other, lots of glass on the road but they seemed ok, exchanging details when we went past. I have had long-haul flights on Friday 13th but nothing untoward has happened. There are 3 Friday 13th this year - normally only 2. Embrace it, sez I. ;)   Messages 1 2 3
