Do you believe in Bad Omens?

[the chi]

Okay, so I may be just a tad superstitious, but in my riding group we have this things about bad feelings and bad omens.

Basically, if we are going for a ride or at the track or something, if one of us gets a bad feeling, we may just call something off. I know it sounds silly, but its been proven everytime one of us gets a bad feeling, usually us ladies, that the events typically follow through and something does indeed happen.

Case in point, our group goes on a Sunday ride, someone gets a bad feeling, someone goes down. My last track day was also an example, of both the bad feeling phenomena and the "Bad things come in 3's" phenomena.

1)My race plastics were incorrectly drilled, didnt fit, had to run nekked.

2)Key was lost en route to the track, had to call for spare and meet halfway.

3)Friend got a bad feeling right before the session I wrecked in. (Told her to shut the fuck up, didnt want to hear it, busted my ass)...

SOOOO, that said...I may be just a TAD paranoid about things, and being as nervous as I am about getting back out there...I am just about ready to throw my hands up and hide in a hole somewhere, cuz it feels like the shit is about to hit the fan...

Today, the day before race day I am once again suffering the phenom of the three...

1)FINALLY got my plastics back from the shop, still not painted but supposedly fitted and ready to go on, since fucker had my bike for well over a month when i could have been riding, and plastics since OCTOBER...WRONG, ASSHOLE HADNT TOUCHED THEM...so running nekked again...

2)Payday at my day job, going outta town, kinda need the money, boss decides he'd like to come in late, and not sign paychecks until AFTER 2 which means my $ doesnt get credited till Monday...

3)Since my day is already shit, figured i'd stop by the ice cream shop and ruin my healthy eating kick...20 minutes waiting for ice cream...pay, machine broken, cant have my hot fudge and strawberry soft serve sunday...got money back, but since I gave them the 2 cents plus some more for a tip, i get 98 fuckin cents back...i HATE change...

I quit...

Anyone else ever get superstitious?
