Sorry to be the one to break the news, but by admitting the term into your life, you may already have brought ruin on your Friday.
I just hope it doesn’t spread to more generalised Arithmophobia, otherwise Monday the 15th could be a double whammy.
Stay strong!

Genuinely only discovered it on Friday but as soon as I counted the syllables I knew a haiku or a tanka would be the way to go.

I’ll take a bakers dozen on a Friday over any crumby old Monday. Every day of the week.

Any weekday, never a cake walk. But Friday- here- was Show Day. (Official paid holiday.) So that felt like high tea.
