Friday the 13th! Bad Valentine’s Eve Day – Love vs Anti-Love?…Whatever…just #LoveYourself!

We have all had our share of bad Valentine’s Day memories (ok, I have….at least) Today Valentine’s Eve, the 13th Day of February falls on what many consider to be the unluckiest day of the year!  For our 13th Blog post in #FebruaryMonthOfLove – we are  getting some inspiration from some unlucky  superstitions and some  past Bad LOVE dates on Friday the 13th.

If you are one of those who hides at home on Feb 13th, and stays in bed paralyzed by fear you have the phobia friggatriskaidekaphobia.  Frigga from the name of the Norse goddess for whom Friday is named, and triskaidekaphobia, or fear of the number thirteen.  Here are some of the popular myths and superstitions surrounding the day:

• If you cut your hair on Friday the 13th, someone in your family will die.
• If a funeral procession passes you on Friday the 13th, you will be the next to die.
• Do not start a trip on Friday or you will encounter misfortune.
• If you break a mirror on Friday the 13th, you will have seven years of bad luck.
• A child born on Friday the 13th will be unlucky for life.
• Ships that set sail on a Friday will have bad luck.
• If you walk under a ladder or if a black cat crosses you on Friday the 13th, you will have bad luck.

Not really any Love Spells happening with any of these supersitions are there.  We think it’s interesting to remember that on this Day in 2009 The famous Bad Valentine’s Day Episode went on Air.  Liz Lemon (Tina Fey ) and dashing Dr. Baird (Jon Hamm of madMen Fame) have a Horrible First Date on  Valentine’s Day,  meanwhile Elisa and Jack attend a Valentine’s Church service and find a McFlurry coupon in the collection plate.  Believing  it is a sign from God because both Elisa and Jack love theMcDonald’s dessert. they end up spending Valentine’s Day together at a McDonald’s.\

We are now just 3 days away from Valentine’s day – which is the mid-point of our #FebruaryMonthofLove series, if you are a regular reader, you will know that we have been posting a  daily romantic reasons to get all kissy this month – we have taken our inspiration from special moments in history and current events.  On this day, in the not to distant history we get inspired by a Hunk  from the most  successful romance story of recent times

Hunky Twilight  Love happened in History on February 11 1992

Taylor Lautner is born in Grand Rapids, MI. And that’s the obligatory Twilight reference.   I mean really, how could we do an entire series on Love, and not at least have one post on Twilight.  And as a bonus Tayler also was in the movie Valentine’s Day, released in 2010 on February 12.

Taylor Daniel Lautner is an American actor, model, and martial artist. Lautner is best known for playing Jacob Black in The Twilight Saga film series based on the novels of the same name by Stephenie Meyer.

As a child, Lautner took up martial arts and was ranked number one in his category by the American Sports Karate Association.

The late 2000s saw Lautner become a teen idol and sex symbol, after extensively changing his physique to keep the role of Jacob Black in further Twilight installments, and generating media attention for his looks. In 2010, he was ranked second on Glamour‘s “The 50 Sexiest Men of 2010” list, and fourth on People‘s “Most Amazing Bodies” list.

Make Hunky Love History on Feb 11, 2015

It’s less than a week away to Valentine’s day, and there is so much love to celebrate in #FebruaryMonthofLove.  For today’s tribute, we are inspired by the British Invasion.  Let’s start with a look back to 51 years ago.

Love happened on February 9, 1964
The Beatles make their first appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show. A nation swoons as Beatlemania takes over. On this date, 51 years ago, at 8pm  the live broadcast of the first Ed Sullivan Show was aired with the full Beatle line-up. The boys from Britian belted out  five LOVE songs (All My Loving, Till There Was You, She Loves You, I Saw Her Standing There and I Want To Hold Your Hand) and made broadcasting history. Seventy-three million people were reported to have watched the first show. It is still supposed to be one of the largest viewing audiences ever in the States.  On that same show  three other British acts completed the show’s schedule – ‘The British Invasion’ was now well under way.

Make your own Love History on Feb 9th!

With The British Invasion happening in History we begin our Valentine’s tune thinking of treats from across the pond…
