Topsy-Turvy Day
Give me a sense of humor, Give me the grace to see a joke, To get some pleasure out of life And pass it on to other folk.
Happy Topsy-Turvy Day! Generally, I hate April Fool's Day. Why save jokes for one day a year? I don't mind joking as long as it is not obnoxious or mean-spirited. Examples? Check out the Top 100 April Fool's Day Hoaxes. One of my favorites is the Taco Liberty Bell, but I'm also quite fond of Hotheaded Naked Ice Borers. They're quite scary.
I'm thinking a good April Fool's Day joke to play on my mom, would be to clean her office. It looks as if a tornado, earthquake and hurricane hit, all at once. I'm serious. I can take pictures if you'd like to see it. It worries me mainly because, she's an administrator. Do you think any high level executive or even...low-level executive would have an office that was unorganized? NO! In some sense I feel like my mom and I have traded organization-cleanliness-clutter free standards. I don't mind a little clutter, but if I had to work in her office I would rather throw myself from her window. I need to go check out mission organization and find some help for her. It really just makes me sad.
Another thing that makes me feel weird is having a really off dream. Last night I dreamt that I was in Excalibur at Las Vegas, but instead of playing grown-up games I was downstairs playing games that gave tickets. I really do prefer ticket-giving games as opposed to gambling, mainly because I never win at grown-up gambling. I was playing a version of whack-a-mole, but instead of mole's they were little E.T's. I had won several hundred tickets when a little girl came up and stole them right off the machine. I went nuts! There I was wrestling a girl, who could not have been more than 5 years old, for a couple hundred-prize tickets. She was a brat. Eventually, I won them back and traded them in for a very nice plastic sword and shield set and a cute little princess crown. I'd love to know what my subconscious is telling me, but have no clue where to start.
I'm ready for lunch.

well, first of all, i'd say you were stealing back your childhood. or at least your childish sense of wonder or play or humor. or maybe your innocence and naivety. and, obviously, your tiara.
were you wearing pajamas in your dream?

You know, I don't remember if I was wearing pj's or not. I think I was wearing regular clothes.

A princess crown, eh? Hmmm... Now if it had been a viking hat, and you were in your jammies, I think I might have an idea of what it meant! =)
