Hmm. Have been reading quite a LOT of sad, gloomy, depressing posts today.
Ok, bedek. There were only, what, 2? Still, it got me thinking. I wonder why nothing made them smile - both inside and out.
I bet it's just mood swings they're getting. I get them too, sometimes, which annoy me, because who wants to be an old grumpy maid, right?
So, anyway. Here are a couple of things that never fail to make me smile or grin or laugh:
1) The Magic Tree House. Don't ask. *muffles laughter*
2) Spongebob. Some of the lines are so stupid that they'd make me laugh outloud, and then people would stare at me, which would make me laugh more.
3) Wave at strangers. But don't this without a friend walking beside you!
4) Think of all the things I shouldn't do, wherever you are. Like, if I'm in the MRT, I'll try to imagine myself lying on a stranger's lap, all of a sudden. Hahahaha.
5) Wink at a stranger! Hahahah.
Ok, so my list consists mainly of doing stupid things, but hey, if that's what it's gonna take, then why not? Granted, my list is kinda short, but they all get me smiling, so it's cool.
So, ok, here's a story on the net that made me smile. Enjoy. (Hope you get the joke this time, Mas):
Have you ever asked your child a question too many times? My three-year-old son had a lot of problems with potty training and I was on him constantly. One day we stopped at Taco Bell for a quick lunch in between errands. It was very busy, with a full dining room. While enjoying my taco, I smelled something funny, so of course I checked my seven-month-old daughter, and she was clean. Then I realized that Danny had not asked to go potty in a while, so I asked him if he needed to go, and he said, "No." I kept thinking, "Oh Lord, that child has had an accident, and I don't have any clothes with me." Then I said, "Dan!, are you SURE you didn't have an accident?" "No," he replied. I just KNEW that he must have had an accident, because the smell was getting worse. Soooooo, I asked one more time, "Danny, did you have an accident?" This time he jumped up, yanked down his pants, bent over and spread his cheeks and yelled. "SEE MOM, IT'S JUST FARTS!!"
