Silly, little fun things

Introduction

Being an adult sucks! So we have a few silly things we like and I will share them. These are the haven't been imbibing kind of things.

1
 

Talk Like a Pirate Day

Arrgh! September 19th me matey. Have a little rum with your Cheerios, wear your patch to work and go for it!

Silly string

 
We have friends who have a big silly string fight on New Years Eve at midnight. Not just for kiddies any more...

The Marshmallow guns

They are more fun for us to give than to use; hmm maybe not. Just wait until a grump face comes around the corner and blast them with a squishy bullet. Plus they make white marks on dark clothes another piss someone off bonus.

Caffeine

 
Yeah, well, like if I drink a caffeine drink, like I get all silly and say stupid things and like they laugh at me and like I sing at the office and in the car and like I love the oldies station, especially when it is playing "So Happy Together" like the real one by the Turtles because it is easy to sing to and then I'm happy because I'm a teeny bit jazzed and like the boss and kids don't like me to drink a caffeine drink because they say I'm silly but the girls at work buy them for me. I think they just like to laugh at me, but that's okay too. I'm pretty funny looking ya know...

Best just not to let me have caffeine.

I don't know what it is called, but

 
when my hubband and I are tooling around Spfd in our Santa Fe we like to play word games; ya just take a word or phrase that someone says and alter it to make another meaning and keep it going. We are easily entertained.

Embarrasing the daughter

 
It is so fun to go out with her and then just talk to whom ever crosses my path. The waitress/waiter; the check out person; anyone in line, etc. Just ask them how their day is and go from there. It really freaks her out...

In line, catching the eye of the person by you - Hi, how ya doing? Geez it is hot, are you from around here? No? where are you from? Wow that's interesting. I knew someone from there once, but they burned her at the stake for witchcraft. Anyway, you get the idea. It is especially great if it is a guy who may be "hot".

Telemarketers

 
I know that they are just doing their job, but they have to be bored too. Ask them if they have used the product and what they thought of it. Or if it is a poll, go through each item and belabor the pros and cons while they are waiting for the answer. Or if is someone asking for money, say, "I'll go get my mom/dad" and just put the phone down while yelling for mom or dad to get it - then just leave it there.

The ape

 
The hubband likes to grab the hand of a girly girl and then act like an ape. She will be frantically struggling to get away and he keeps a tight grip; in the mall, at church, some where public or it is no fun. Katy, Kelly did he ever get you at Houston UMC? He used to get Ashley H. all of the time.

Involving store clerks

 
Added 9-6-07

I like buying obviously young woman stuff for the daughter but acting like it is for me at the register. Asking the, usually, young clerk how this or that would look on me, etc. "The best one said, well you may want to try the next size up." Like that would work...

You can really brighten up a day. Silly and fun. Would love to have a marshmallow gun.

my mom does a brilliant job with #6. she takes it upon herself to become everyone's new best friend, and she LOVES to flirt with hot young waiters. actually, they don't even have to be hot. everyone is fair game. it's even more awkward in a big city where people aren't used to overt friendliness.

and i think you should get hopped up on caffeine and spit out 25 lists. i'll bet they'd be good!

i am pretty good at #6 too. I like to stop and visit with everyone, makes my daughter crazy.

Cute list, Pam! Regarding #6...does my sweetpea daughter thinks my normal behavior is abnormal?

As for the caffeine... "Theresacowtheresacowtheresacow!..." for an hour and a half... yep, that scarred me in my childhood!

As for number six... why Why WHY?! Maybe those nice people just want to be left alone and go through their day... I know I do!

Pam, the sister-in-law and I ran around today. We kept referring to "a #6" and we made many new friends! (My poor neice!) SOMEDAY, they will all get even with us!
