The 13th day of January and April fell on Friday this year. According to USAToday, that's the first time since 1984 that a trio of Friday the 13ths have fallen in such a small window.

We'll have to wait until September 2013 for the next occurence. December 2013 will offer another. So will June 2014.

I'm curious: Do you try to avoid anything when the No. 13 in your calendar falls on a Friday? Do you have other superstitions?
