Every so often, due to hours upon hours of listening to useless information about wood stains & grains i fight a burst of laughter. it’s very much comparable to the kind of laughter bursts that happens in church when it’s enormously inappropriate and all the while incontainable. Tim sometimes gets irritated with me when we try to pray and as soon as he starts he can hear my snickering. (*i don’t condone my behavior) i’ve been told i’m mature but somehow my 8 year old self has seemed to survive. (I’m 21 1/2 years old for cryin’ out loud?! Doesn’t that mean anything to me?!) in today’s instance it struck while at work (surprised?) and i frantically looked everywhere for a reason to laugh. I looked up people’s names with plans to find a ridiculously funny one (we had a jimmy hendrix come in one day & i couldn’t help myself), but to no avail. i then tried to text hilarious lines from the office to fellow fans & no replies were made. (pfft, some friends! kidding, they all just have lives on saturdays when i’m stuck at work) Even Tim is unavailable to make me laugh! Tim is my laughter safety net & he is not here to look at me funny or share a friends embarassing story. so here i sit, raging laughter caged inside of me with no outlet. Doesn’t anyone know any jokes?! one of two things will happen.
scenario one: i will laugh at the first person who talks to me, no matter what they say. ie: is this on sale? me: HA!
scenario two: I will try to hold it in for as long as i can only for it to let loose at a seirously inappropriate time. ie: my dog just died. me: HA!
woe, woe is me.
********UPDATE********
whilst texting my pregnant sister in law, i was meaning to tell her that my brothers wife is expecting as well and accidently T9ed brothel instead of brother. Luckily I caught it before it sent. I am half way to recovery!

You’re a gem! I would love to meet up. We are taking off the 3rd (after work) to head up to Ferron where my hubby is from. We wont be back until that Sunday night. So if you’re there before or after then let me know and I will email you my number or something. If not, dang it!! We will totally have to do it next time you’re in town or whenever I go to New Mexico! ha.
Seriously, the things we learn from blogs. We could have had a rockin’ time in high school.
