今天还是Friday, the 13th。据说会是倒霉的一天。摘一段Wikipedia的叙述：

13號星期五（或黑色星期五）是在西方文化中，對任何月份的13日正逢星期五之稱呼。在日耳曼语族系和罗曼语族系國家的文化當中，十三號星期五被迷信者認為是不幸、不吉利的日子。在許多其他的文化當中也可見到類似的迷信，例如在希臘和西班牙等國家的文化也視「13號星期五」為不吉利的一天。
Friday the 13th occurs when the thirteenth day of a month falls on Friday, which superstition holds to be a day of good or bad luck. In the Gregorian calendar, this day occurs at least once, but at most three times a year. Any month’s 13th day will fall on a Friday if the month starts on a Sunday. In 2009 this applies to the months of February, March, and November. The next year to have three Friday the 13th dates will be 2012.

晚上Mark给了我两张Hockey（冰球）的票，我找Alex一起去看，本来叫韩冰的，可惜他不感兴趣。
