Friday the 13th

[thedeadlyassassin]

It's Friday the 13th. Anything weird happen to anyone? I saw the happening, interesting weird movie. That's all I did... besides spend some time with friends.

I actually won a match, it's a cursed day indeed!

I had a girl strip naked in my store today. Not as good as it sounds, she was about 2. Pretty funny though.

I went to the garage to get some maintaince done on my brakes, found out they had to replace a wishbone instead...

I dunno if thats bad luck, the thing looked like it was made of waffer...

Someone report Mr. Rico to the Sarge.

I saw Hulk, pretty good. The Friday/13 related item I experienced was this: I had a very uncormfortable heart incident right as it was starting: skipped at least two straight beats.

If you don't have arrythmia, consider yourself very lucky. It absolutely sucks, especially when something like that happens, because not only do you immediately notice something is wrong, but it often spreads this strange sort of full-body numbness and other undescribable feelings across the body. It just sort of freaks you out faster than just about anything I can think of.

Most of the time you just need to calm down a bit afterward, but I'm sitting there watching things like a heart rate monitor worn by Dr. Banner for 2 more hours. Doesn't lead to a zen-like state.

P.S. I'm only 32, and only slightly overweight now at around 209 pounds at just under 6' even. I don't look like Harry Knowles.

Believe it or not there was a dead black cat on the east end of the yard that the trim job crew saw that was cut in half by one of our trains. Don't know if the that crew had any bad luck?

I was mowing the lawn and we have this pretty large industrial mower since we have about 2-3 acres of grass, and I didn't go over anything like looking bad, but the blade (about 3 inches of it) broke off and went flying somewhere. I only know this after having inspected the mower for about a half hour. Thank god it didn't hit my ankle because I would surely be in the hospital. Then while I was switching the blades the mower decided to fall off the wood I had to lift it off the ground with and smoosh my arm between metal and driveway. Woot.

Friday the 13th has always been a good luck day for me.

How are you over weight? Im 6' 3" and 210lbs. You are too self concious! Besides women love love handles... jk.

[killa_zn]

I ate sushi...?

[drunken_chef]

I dodn't even realise it was the 13th yesterday till today.

[K PhaNTOM]

unless you are stuck in a door, and the fire dept. is nearby, I don't consider it overweight.

Is 300+ bad for a 4 feet man? just asking, not me *sneaky*

Because according to the geniuses at the AMA, I'm in the "obese" category. I'm supposed to weigh closer to what I did in college, around 185.

The same nitwits think my stressed heartrate for a person my age needs to be about 180; my normal rate is pretty low, around 45-50. There is no physical way I can get my rate that high for a heart stress test. They had to shoot me up with some nuclear cocktail to artificially do it.

I'm 6'1", 205. I used to be 242. I had a job that required me to drive 4 hours a day and at work we had free Mt. Dew. Lemme tell ya, diet coke and not eating food you order while still in your car does wonders. Cholesterol dropped from 210 to 155 also. I don't have a murmer but my ulcer's no fun.

Same here.
