Guys! I didn’t even
realize it was Friday the 13th until my daughter mentioned it. She said she had some funky dreams and I can
relate because I had a funky one too.
Dream:
I was at work. Isn’t
that where all bad dreams start? I was
in our back office and hordes of people all of sudden flooded it. Like people coming in and being incredibly
loud and messing up the office. If you
know me, I keep it nice, neat and orderly to the best of my ability. I went up to the front office after I got
people cleared out. They just
disappeared. In the front office, there
were firefighters with yellow balloons and bags on popcorn on the table. The lobby was filled with clients. All of a sudden the electricity went out in a
wave and it felt like the ground shifted and there was water under our
feet. I fell into one of the counters
but everyone else acted like nothing happened.
The wave of water happened again and this time, the floor started tilted
and collapsed. Kinda like a boat
capsizing. Then, we were all
outside. No one was hurt. There were children outside, playing in a
sandbox, acting oblivious to a building collapsing right next to them. The last thing I heard someone say before I
woke up was “Look at Jillian, playing all by herself again” Who the heck is Jillian? It was vivid and I don’t have many of
those. It was right before I woke up and
I’m not sure if that has anything to do with it. Dream experts, weigh in….
What makes Friday the 13th so unlucky? Some believe the origins to go all the way
back to Friday, October 13th, 1307.
King Philip IV of France detained hundreds of Knight Templars accusing
them of various things. Many of them
were executed. Pretty much the King
wanted their financial riches. Money is
the root of all things evil, right? The
origins are still pretty sketch though, because Templar history is hidden
well. Secret society and all.
I am superstitious over a few things and Friday the 13th
is not one of them. I also love black
cats. I think everyone should adopt
them!
How’s your Friday going for you?
Also, throwing some pictures in from four years ago when my children became the Children of the Corn. I'm glad they played along with that.
The black cats we've had were all wonderful kitties, affectionate and silly. (In contrast, the torties were all psychotic, but sweet.) I actually read somewhere that the reason people don't adopt black cats is because they don't photograph well. Can you believe it?
ReplyDeleteWhat!?! That is crazy! I think they are beautiful when they are photographed!
DeleteSomeone recently told me that the animal shelters don't let people adopt black cats in October because there are weirdos that do bad things to them! I love black cats, though. And Friday the 13th too.
ReplyDeleteHa, laughing at your Children of the Corn! "Outlander! We have your woman!"
Weird dream. Were you ok when you awoke or frantic and stressed? I kind of hate dreams, but then again I rarely have a good one (if I remember it).

ReplyDeleteI think it's great that everyone made it outside, unharmed. Is it possible that YOU are Jillian?
Thank you for the history about Friday the 13th.
