I can't think of a better name for this than "Superstitions"

The number 520 pops up often in my life. It might be that something costs $5. 20, or I wake up at 5:20. Strange things even happen to me on the date May 20. This number shows up every day. Today my lunch money balance was $5.20, and while in geometry, my x-coordinate was 5 and my y-coordinate was 20. It's really very weird. I'm not superstitious, so I don't think this number has anything to do with my wellbeing or whatever else a number might mean. What about you? Are you superstitious? Last Friday was Friday the 13th. Did you hesitate at petting a black cat? Do you toss salt (or is it pepper?) over your left (right?) shoulder when you spill some? How do you feel about walking between the legs of a ladder? Do you have a special number that seems to stalk you? The list goes on and on. Spin a tale around a superstition. Feel free to make one up or blow a popular one out of proportion. I'm counting on you to make me _want_ to be superstitious. Creep me out. The deadline is _*NOT*_ May 20th.
