Petals Around The Rose. Viva Vivid!
Jun 07

In no particular order, here are some of the silly things I’ve done to make people laugh:

  • Worn orange foam “horns” on my forehead, attached with suction cups. Following that came two weeks of wearing a hat to cover the “hickeys” that developed from a little too much suction.
  • Having severe pains in my nether regions after painting a happy face down there with my wife’s nail polish… for her amusement only, of course.
  • Smacked my bare ass with a wooden spoon; progressively harder as the laughter grew. Eventually I had a wooden-spoon shaped welt and a matching bruise which also bore a wooden-spoon shape upon my buttocks. For those who have eaten at our house have no fear… the spoon broke on my butt before the night was through and was promptly tossed in the trash.
  • Danced in my underwear outside of the bathroom door to make Kimberly not cranky at me any more. After about 30 minutes of doing said dance and making up a song about what I’m an idiot I am a burst of laughter came out from behind the door and I knew I was forgiven.
  • More to come as I think of them…
