Superstitious About A Kilt
Maybe I played too much baseball as a kid....Superstitions abound in baseball...
As an intelligent, aware, adult with a master's degree in professional counseling I know superstitions are dumb, stupid, and silly....
BUT...
A few years ago I was in a collision while wearing one of my kilts. The insurance company absolved me of any blame.
But there were years of follow up with courts, insurance reps, and those "have you been injured?" lawyers on tv.
Now, when I come to choose which kilt to wear I find myself skipping that kilt - as if something else bad might happen to me if I wore it again.
When I do force myself to wear it I find myself being extra careful and extra aware as if this kilt is somehow bad luck.
I know that is irrational - but the superstition - fear - is there...
Anyone else experience similar silly superstitions about a kilt too.
Or should I just go ahead and check myself into the Senility Acres Booby Hatch?
