Rabbit Rabbit

When Wendy and I started living together, she insisted that we should say "rabbit rabbit" to each other as soon as we wake up on the first day of each month. She said doing so would bring us a month's worth of good luck. I never thought, until just now, to look it up on Wikipedia. Of course, when we started this, wikipedia didn't exist.

Like so many things in our life together, the ritual became a fun little game we'd enjoy playing. I had heard somewhere that in order to fully receive the luck, you had to say "hare hare" on the last night of the month. We made it so that one could not speak between saying "hare hare" as we went to bed and "rabbit rabbit" in the morning. I used to like to trick her into saying "hare hare" before me, because then I could taunt her, say anything I wanted, and she wouldn't be able to respond without risking the loss of a month's good luck.
