10. Never step on someone's grave... bad luck.

Whew! Now I can leave with a warm feeling that I'm thought of everytime I do this in bed with some guy! How can I be faulted, really, when I just met him and the only time I uttered his name was twice when I went to thank him for my 15 Alabama Slammers & 2 Sloe screws against the wall and then I when asked him home with me? (Although I think I referred to him as "hey dude wanna get some" at that point).

I am so TOTALLY KIDDING!! Good golly. I kid like a pig.

I didn't realize how superstitious I was until I read GC's post! In regards to the graveyard superstion, I wrestle with this one quite a bit. When I go to the cemetery, try as I may, it is impossible not to step on graves. The plots are packed pretty tightly together and unless you can fly, it's one of those things you kinda can't avoid. But I DO feel bad doing it, so I try to step lightly.

*I have to tap my dashboard twice everytime I run a yellow light. However, this only applies to when you're moving straight ahead. Not on right or left turns.

*Everytime I pass my Church or a Catholic church, I make the Sign Of The Cross. I notice that now I include Churches of all Religions. I felt guilty only including my own denomination.

*I knock on wood.

*Everytime I say something awful, in regards to an awful event bestowing myself or anybody I love, it must be followed with "God forbid". Example? "You just know I'm going to end up sick with the flu all season, God forbid"

*I prefer not to walk under ladders, but I think black cats are pretty wonderful and I love them.

*I don't know if there is actually a name for this, but I fear the month of May. For four years in a row now, every month of May, I have lost a loved one tragically. I remind myself that lots of wonderful birthdays are in May, too, but I still..I panic when May nears. I just focus on the birthdays!

To be honest, this is kinda mild. if I posted my obsessive compulsive attributes, I would freak everybody out.
