Something goofy to make you smile for a moment!

ME TOO! it's great for the spirit...or soul....whatever you call the energy that moves us from one moment or one day to the next

My doctor put me on a new medication for depression (I don’t remember which one - it’s been years ago now) and it was rather sedating. I sat down on the couch with a bowl of Lucky Charms cereal and got to about the second spoonful when I dozed off. I woke up to an empty bowl and my dog, who had been sitting at my feet, wearing Lucky Charms. His expression was priceless (poor dog) and he never sat at my feet again. He’d sit beside me but never in front.

I'm not sure I've shared this one (at least not in this thread), but one day when I was going to the shop I met this man raising money for charity who had absolutely no interest in what he was doing

I went up to him and asked what his charity was about and he goes "dogs", nothing more, just dogs. I told him I liked dogs and he said, "I like dogs", and when I asked hhim his favorite dog, I like labradors, he said he liked labradors too.

I went in to get my shopping, and when I came back out he was still their

turned to me and went... "I like labradors"

as I walked back I couldn't help wonder if he was just payed to say he liked labradors, but not actually know what a labrador was. If I said I liked cats, or I liked birds, would he just copy me?

I have a small bruise on my face but it looks like a smudge of dirt or ink...makes me feel a bit ridiculous and I do enjoy laughing at myself sometimes

today when I was shopping, a woman was playing what seemed to be an air raid cyren on her phone. I pannicked for a split second, before I heard heavy guitar music and she goes... oh don't worry, I'm just listening to disturbed.

I did see the funny side eventually

also yesterday when I got to the checkout they told me I didn't have enough money.

so I had to go all the way back, get some more money and then come back

stressfull at first, and caused me some anxiety, but after I'd got the shopping home I laughed about it

I get angry a lot about how my mother treated me as a kid

one day I typed in google, "I hate my mummy", just to see what came up.

and the first result was this youtube video

which makes me chuckle

I grew up in S Calif but never went surfing. I went to college in Colorado and did learn to ski. One summer my college roommate and I were visiting my mom in California and went surfing. We rented to board and the wetsuits and as we were loading the truck, the shop guy came running out saying" you forgot the wax!" We hopped in the truck and went to the beach, got everything ready, looked at the wax, shrugged out shoulders and started industriously waxing the bottom of the surfboards. We didn't figure out until much later that you wax the tops of surfboards in order to stick on better and the bottom of skis to make them go faster.

I see now that most mistakes just wind up making a good story later and that's about how important they are. It's good to be reminded of that.

I was eating lunch at a cafe. A couple was sitting not far from me. The husband suddenly sneezed very loudly. His wife feigned shock while making eye contact with me and said: "Hey! What are you doing?! You scared that poor woman over there!!" I replied: "Yes, I'm sitting here shaking...I'm SO delicate!" Random interactions like that with strangers make me smile

My friend was buying toilet paper at the store...one of the large multi-packs so she didn't have to buy more for a while. As she approached the checkout, a little boy pointed at the large pack of toilet paper and shouted: "Uh oh! You must have diarrhea!"

When she told me this story we both laughed for a long time.

People whose advice to everything is, "Give 'em a good boot up the arse." :-)

perhaps my highlight of the day was watching a children's tv presenter get it all wrong.

" happy second birthday rachel. this card comes with lots of love from your mommy and daddy, it says we hope you have a great third birthday, enjoy being 3. we love you"

waaaa?

how did she age a year in a few seconds. lol

I was writing about my morning rooteen in another thread, and almost put I always eat my computer at 8 30, (when I was meant to say breakfast)

but then I was also writing about spending time on my computer in the mornings because I don't sleep.

so yeah. easily confused

We live near a mountain lake and my son likes to scuba dive. He got a bee in his bonnet that he wanted to dive in the lake. I did not want him to do this by himself, so I inflated the kayak, put the dachshund in his lifejacket, got my Diet Coke and went out with him. I tied a neon green rope to him so I could tell where he was. As you can imagine, this was quite a sight. One guy went paddling by in his little fishing float thing. I toasted him with my soda and said " you don't see this every day!" He must have been stunned, because he didn't answer.

I saw the song, "baby shark", on the music channel

amusing finding out that that song had actually made it in to the charts

A young kid at the gym asked why this section is called the Cardio Theater. My first thought was because people here act like they're working out.

But no one laughed...

I recently discovered another pretty awesome youtube sensation, the duck song

about a duck walking in to a lemonaid stand and asking for grapes

I tell that as a joke. I didn't know they had made a song out of it.

cool...

after yesterday's episode of the chase, the presenter said, at random, "potato"

something to do with the production company that make it

so now I watch the chase just for "potato" at the end of it.

honestly the whole idea of the chase is kind of old for me now, but I have a reason to watch it

I was having one of those mornings which feels like everything is going wrong. After the 4th thing in a row went wrong while I rushed to get ready for an appointment, my hairdryer blew a fuse. I started shouting at the hairdryer out of sheer frustration. I was actually frustrated with myself for not getting up earlier (I'm a human zombie most mornings) but I decided to take it out on the hairdryer. After telling my hairdryer exactly what I thought of it I walked into the other room and found my significant other laughing. I asked why. He said: "You rarely lose your temper...it's kind of funny when it happens!" Then I started laughing with him. A goofy moment can make a bad morning better!

today a woman told me she had to leave but was good she could talk to me for a bit.

when I asked her why she had to leave so suddenly, she turned round and said "because I need a pooh."

TMI?

or.. I guess I did ask, so

Yes, a simple "Need to use the restroom" would have done just fine... there's no need to share whether it's #1 or #2.

I think this woman's a little too much in to her honesty. lol
