what’s your lucky number?

According to my mom, the number 8 is a lucky number. She got that from the Chinese. It’s infinity, she said. She even married my dad on 8/8. And this year, there are three couples I know who got married 8/8/8, and one who started a relationship on that date. I don’t really know if the “lucky” number is true, but I have friends who are really lucky (relationships, career, money, etc), and a former officemate whose name is Lucky. If it were true, I guess people (mostly Chinese) should have been flocking the Vegas casinos right now. And for people who cannot leave home but feeling very lucky, especially on every 8th month of this year, there are always online casinos to visit. As for me, this year hasn’t been particularly good to me. Maybe bad luck would bounce off me before the “lucky” year of 2008 ends. If that happens, I may visit an online casino myself—maybe 8 days before 2008 exits and takes my luck away.
