Superstitions

How superstitious are you? What if any superstitions do you believe in? Do they influence your decision-making at all? If so how, and how much?

I sort of give lip service to superstition. Much like your second situation, if something especially improbable happens to either deny me or provide me something, I'll say 'guess the universe wants me to (not) have it!' I don't REALLY think this is the case, I think it's just random chance, a string of coincidences, but it's more easily conceptualized/explained as 'guess it was the universe'.

I'm not very. Hardly at all! The only thing is that I try not to put negative stuff out in the universe, because it usually bites me in the a**. But that's just good sense!

You want to know one reason I'm superstitious? For the past couple hours I've been playing a video game, not reading LJ or doing other stuff on the computer. 5 minutes ago I was thinking about you for some reason, then I take a break from the game and find your comment! Weird stuff like that is so common that I have a very skewed idea of what "coincidence" means, exactly.
