Some days the strangest things make me laugh outloud...
1. Using the Federal Express website to prepare a shipment of three packages. CONFESSION: I never weigh the packages. Nor do I ever bother to get precise dimensions. One time the FedEx driver told me that it doesn't matter...soooo now I just make stuff up when I create the shipments. It tickles my funny bone to put down estimated weight and measurements. I figure, I do the same thing when I log in to the elliptical at the gym. Why not apply the same principle to mailing stuff? I sent three packages with a total weight of 6 pounds -- they felt like they weighed less than a gallon of water (8 pounds, thank you very much).
2. Today I made green tea for my favorite co-worker and myself. I always make his mug of tea first because I read somewhere that the caffeine brews in the first 30 seconds of steeping. Thus - if you want decaf tea, brew the tea bag for 30 seconds and toss the caffeinated tea (or in my case, give to some unsuspecting co-worker) and then add new water and brew yourself some decaf tea. He always thinks I am being super sweet and kindhearted...not all the time...sometimes I just want to give someone else the caffeine, laughed the girl with curly hair.
3. Excel and creating a chart. This was more of a nervous laugh situation. I did tell the computer, "I'd appreciate it if you could take these columns and make them pretty."
4. Resolutionee beginning a sentence with "Let's see if you know anything..." Insert my you-are-so-not-funny laugh before exiting stage left to go and eat lunch. There are moments when I know that my blood sugar is low. I knew at this moment that if I chose to speak, I may say something that wasn't kind and loving. Instead of opening my mouth, I exercised self-control and went and found nourishment in the form of chicken tortilla soup leftovers.
5. Laughing about the possibility of a gold tooth!!! My bestie made light of my broken tooth and I have to admit it brightened my day. It should be noted -- nothing more than a filling was required...for which I am truly thankful. Also, I do believe I should receive a silver medal for taking the filling without any nitrous. I'm such a wimp when it comes to that dreadful drill!
