Rabbits

What was the first word you spoke out loud after you woke up this morning? I bet it wasn't "Rabbits".
My parents told me, so my sister and I believed and acted upon the belief, that if your first word on the first of the month is "Rabbits!", you will have lots of luck. I have never come across this superstition anywhere else. Was it just another of my father's idiosyncratic beliefs, along with marxism and the curative properties of seaweed?
Anyway, I shouted "Rabbits" this morning, so I am all geared up for a run of good fortune.
Not that I am superstitious,
But it might just work.
You never know.
Fingers crossed.
