No biggie. Just another quirk of riding.
Just looked at my previous flat...it was also on the 13th....hmmm.
Have you tried adding a small bottle of this:

If you are using a presta valved tube, unscrew the core with a 4mm wrench. Add fluid and re-install core. Inflate tire and spin around. In about 18 moths or so, you put a new tube in and repeat.
