Friday the 13th, oooooo! For the second month in a row, oooOOOO!!! That means this will either be a super lucky day, or a super unlucky day. Only time will tell.
I’ve added a new “Discounts” page. As part of being a BibRave Pro, I get access to some pretty nice deals on gear and race entries all over the country. I’ll be updating the page frequently as I get new discount codes, and removing expired codes. I hope you find them useful! Check it out here.
We’re brewing beer tomorrow! I do believe I’ve mentioned this before, but in case I haven’t, Ben is a novice beer brewer and we make a few batches a year, mostly for our own enjoyment. It’s actually a pretty great hobby. Once you make the initial investment in the equipment you need (which can be as low as $100 for a basic kit), the ingredients for each batch average around $50, and you get about 50 beers per batch, so it’s a great value. It’s been a really fun way for us to spend time together, and we’ve made some great beers.
I don’t have rehearsal until 8:30 tonight, wahoo! Rehearsals usually run from 6:45-10 pm, but tonight, I don’t have to be there until 8:30. This means I’m pushing off my recovery run until later this weekend and going on a errand spree. I need to get a graduation gift for Ben, a birthday gift for my sister Hilary, and take care of a few other things. It will be really nice not to arrive at rehearsal already completely exhausted, and go into the weekend feeling like I’m on top of things.
Do you believe that Friday the 13th is unlucky?
Have you ever brewed your own beer?
I’ve tried brewing beer before with a “Mr. Beer” kit. It was ok, but where do you keep the thing? I had trouble finding a spot for it in my house to just sit for a few weeks.
Closets are good. Also if you have a basement. That’s where ours usually goes, since you’re supposed to keep it cool and dark anyway.
Ooooo discounts! Thanks! I usually don’t even realize it’s Friday the 13th until after it’s already passed, so it could be unlucky and I won’t notice the pattern.
I don’t really believe in superstitious stuff, I just think it’s kind of fun that there were two in a row 🙂
13 is one of my favorite numbers 😀 3, 23, and 37 being my others. 73 if we are really pushing it. I like 3’s and primes. It was how I one when we had to pick numbers behind my mom’s back lol Have a great weekend!
I like 3’s and 8’s 😀
I didn’t realize it was Friday the 13th until about an hour ago and so far it’s been a pretty good day. No superstitiousness for me! 😀 So cool that you guys are brewing beer! One of my really good friends does it and some of them have been awesome. I wish I liked beer more so that the investment would make sense for us. I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
You could always ferment cider instead 😉
What are you rehearsing for? I’m not a beer person so never tried brewing my own!
I’m in rehearsals for Legally Blonde the musical right now. It’s so much fun!
Oh wow how fun!!!
It’s a blast!
I bet!!!
I have no problem with Friday the 13th. And I can say that after having totaled a car years on Friday the 13th. 13 is actually part of my favorite number. Have a great weekend!
I really like the number 3, so any number with 3 in it works for me 🙂 I hope you have a great weekend too!
Just catching up now. Hope you had a fun weekend of beer brewing with Ben! Love your discounts page 🙂
Thanks, lady! It was a great weekend, and I actually got to relax for a hot second, which was really nice 🙂
