april fool's day after blues

This may be a silly thing to admit, but I was disappointed that I didn't get one single joke played on me yesterday. Not even a "What's-that-on-your-shirt?"-flick-the-nose kind of joke. I thought for sure my I-LIVE-to-play-practical-jokes husband would have thought of something. I even waited until the very last minute of the day after all the lights were turned off and the covers pulled up....nothing.

I played my own little jokes, though. I food colored the milk green. I made meatloaf cake, frosted with mashed potatoes and wrote "Happy April Fools" in barbecue sauce. I even played a trick on my husband that he hasn't discovered yet, hee hee.



I supposed you could say that Jeopardy played a trick on me. I swear that I saw a mustache on Alex Trebek one minute and then the next camera shot of him.....there was no mustache!! I'm still trying to figure that one out.

Tell me about jokes you played and jokes that were played on you.

The biggest joke was this year's 5 inches of snowfall. Yuck. I told Jeremy no jokes this year from him to me - was not in the mood. Actually, I'm like that every year so I think it's cute that you like this day. My mom though believed the radio stations when they announced that our Gov. was in talks w/ some Canadian officials in giving them the city of Ely and above to Canada. Hilarious. It took us a while to convince my mom they were kidding. She was just so convinced since she heard it twice on the radio. Funny!

In my defense, Shelly woke up unusually early and hovered around me for the entire morning, and again no opportunities in the evening. I had plans, but I guess they will have to wait until May Fools Day!
