Life is funny. Live life.
You wanna hear something funny?
I was relating this story to my husband last night and I was cracking up so hard I could hardly get the words out.
When I was about 11 years old my mother, brother and I went to the local Thrifty store for an ice cream cone. We got into the car to leave with me in the backseat and my brother in the front passenger seat. Back in those days seatbelts weren't mandatory and my brother had a habit of sitting with his back up against the door. We had an old, red '78 two door Dodge Aspen my mother called Old Red (or Nelly depending on her mood) Anyway as my mother backed out of the parking spot the door on the passenger seat came open. My brother went with and was hanging onto the door handle with one hand and the seat with the other. My mother panicked and instead of stopping the car, she drove the rest of the way down the aisle and when she got to the end she drove in a circle going probably about 2 miles an hour. The whole time she's driving she's yelling, "Hold on Ryan! Just hold on until I can stop!" I sat and laughed my butt off in the backseat hoping he would fall out so I could see the results. She did finally stop and help him into the car and then got mad at me for not helping her!

That photo cracks me up and makes me feel perverse at the same time but I'm sure that was never your intent..oh no, not you, Mr. Normal Person. Normal? Who wants that? Normal is the stuff of nightmares, not humor. :)

This is not acceptable behaviour in today's society. Sheesh, the nerve of some people! If you can't function like a normal human being perhaps you should go sign up on a web site for wierdos and sick demented people! Wait a minute somebody's whispering something in my ear. Ohhhhhhhhhhhh! Sorry! Never mind!

- I think this is hilarious. People just don't think sometimes. One time someone I know (not me, but a spouse) tried to change a lightbulb IN THE SHOWER while taking a shower and the light switch was turned to on. I quickly checked the status of his life insurance policy, made sure I was still the beneficiarly.....no, seriously, I screamed so loudly that he dropped the bulb and got mad at me! Then I made fun of him so we were even.

- wasn't bad Kelly this time! I wasn't the one that drove around the parking lot like an idiot at 2 miles an hour shouting for him to hold on! lol that's what has always cracked me up that day. all the woman had to do was stop. Even if he had fallen all the way out of the car she wasn't going fast enough for him to have gotten hurt. LOL
