:-)) almost didn't get on an airplane once because I couldn't find my
silver charm bracelet. Never fly without one - ideally one with
souveniers of successful trips (I have several bracelets full of
charms) - I always take my "Florida" bracelet when I go home - has
shells, palm tree, lighthouse, fish, alligator, etc.

When I performed, I always had a cross from my baby necklace pinned to
the inside of my bra (curious choice of items. a friend had a patch
taken from her baby blanket pinned inside hers).
