The Luck of the Unlucky

I'm not sure what it is about me, but typically I can walk outside, look down and spot a four leaf clover.  Without trying.  If you ask me to do it.... I fail.  It's like that whole being put on the spot thing.

In an average year I can find anywhere between 20-56 (that was the most I've ever found in a single year) four leaf clovers.

You'd think that with all this luck, I'd be part Leprechaun and could score a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow.  Right?

It isn't necessarily that easy for me. I've noticed that the only type of luck I have is dumb luck and near miss/close calls (like that could have been so much worse) type of luck.  Whatever it is, I'll take my lucky clovers.  I enjoy being able to find them and maybe one day they might prove to be legitimately lucky for me.  I keep a few in my purse. One day, when I have more time, I'll elaborate on my dumb luck and near misses.
