I've got so many it's hard to remember them all, but I'll start with this one.
My lucky number is 9, has been since I was a kid playing little league baseball.
Without quite admitting it, I tend to avoid the number 4.
This is a Japanese superstition, since both 4 and "death" are pronounced "shi."
Like I wouldn't go out of my way, but given the choice I'd rather buy three or five of something.
(I also have the unshakeable feeling that even numbers are soft but odd numbers are crisp, which I guess isn't a superstition but tends to influence me.)
