5 things that made me laugh...

or 4 (can't think of a 5th right now). Anyway, minor amusements in the life of Hannah:

1. The cow who kept sticking her head out of the back of the trailer in front of me to stare at me rather vulgarly; or to look at surrounding countryside every once in awhile (maybe you had to be there for that one...)

2. A sign: "try our new shrimp items go Jackets win!" (the 'Jackets being the local high school football team--and yes, it would have been funnier without the "try our," but I'm honest)

3. When I was sitting in the waiting area of a psychiatrist's office last week (waiting for a rider to finish), and the psyche dr. came in and said (in a tone and accompanied with a hand motion used toward children and dogs by people who don't understand them) to me, "come on back, Maggie!" I'm afraid my eyebrows were a little rude (she interrupted Fitzgerald, and I was wearing red, too), but the rest of me tried to be polite. (There's nothing they can do anyway...)

4. Another sign: "flea/farmer's market" (no comment)

5. The elderly gentleman at the church I spoke at recently:

H (in presentation): Another question I get frequently is "when are you going? The answer to that is "as soon as I have the financial support raised."

**********************************

Old gentleman after church: Good luck [ed. note: no comment]. By the way, when are you going?

H: Well, as soon as I have my support raised...

OGAC: Oh, so you have it already, huh?

::laugh:: That's pretty funny!

It sounds like you've been having time to re-read all the schoolbooks we had to dash through...what fun. I'm working on that, too.

Don't under estimate the power of the Curby eyebrows.
