I have a superstition.
The superstition is that I need to wear my blue t-shirt that says “gravity and I respectfully disagree” to bed the night before I go climbing outdoors in order for it to be a good day.
You know, it’s like pro-sports athletes but without the paycheck to show for it. Also without the skill of a pro-athlete which is why there is no paycheck to show for it
Ridiculous as this may be, I haven’t had a bad day outside climbing yet. This very likely has little to do with my T-shirt and a lot to do with how much I like being outside and rock climbing.
It seems too risky to give up the superstition now.
