#13#

Explanation:

The Earth "goes around the Sun" once a year. So since I am writing this answer in mid October 2017 it has gone around the Sun about #13.7# times since February 1 2004.

Actually the Earth and Sun orbit mutually around their barycentre, but since the Sun is much more massive than the Earth, their barycentre lies well within the Sun.
