two pony tails and lots of giggles

Give me a dare and I, usually, accept. Sometimes, we (the girls in my office) find things to bring the excitement into our office. So, on Monday, I dared Vieve to wear her hear pulled back into two pony tail braids. She did.

On Tuesday, Vieve dared me to wear two pony tails in my hair. I did not think that my hair was long enough. But, I was completely wrong. Anyway, I accepted the dare.

I pulled back my hair into two pony tails, put on my orange sweatshirt and then found the perfect ribbons to place in my hair. Then, it was off to work.


As I was getting into my car, a lady drove up into my driveway. As I approached her, she looked at my hair and asked if I was going to work today. I giggled and said that I was. I told her that I was acting on a dare. She just laughed. YES, I know that I am crazy. This is how my day started--there were plenty of other times through out the day that I giggled with embarrassment. Hey, everyone needs to laugh once in a while.

Have you laughed today?

CAUTION: a simple sentence could lead to hysterical laughing...


Have you ever sent off an email without thoroughly reading it from beginning to end? Well, I found that this happened to me TODAY!!! Let me set the story for you.

Work has been quite busy and 100% stressful this past week. I had documents and files that I had been working on that were extremely time consuming and exhausting. Yes, it has been a tiresome week. Anyway, it was close to 4:00 pm when I realized that I had a question about a particular document that needed to be sent out. I was unsure if my boss (VP of Operations) was going to create the document and get it to the mailroom to be sent to one of our clients. So, I opened I/M and quickly sent off an email. This is how it went:

A thought just pooped in my head, did you create ******'s documents?

I almost died!!! Thoughts do not "poop" in your head--they POP into your head. Of course, I quickly sent the message stating the word popped not pooped. I was hoping that she would skip the first message and go quickly to the second one.

Immediately, my phone rings and I hear this hysterical laugh coming from the the phone. I was completely 100% embarrassed. BUT, laughter does release a lot of stress!!

My response, "Maybe that is why I have been having headaches this week. Things are pooping inside my brain!"


Keep laughing....that is what I am doing to prevent bursting into humiliation tears!!
