April Fools

[fieryjen]

So... what did you do to fool the people around you? Which pranks you played in the past are you the most proud of? Which clever schemes did you fall for?

Personally, I am notoriously bad at anything April Fools, but this year I was just evil... crawled onto my husband's lap just after midnight and started a teary-eyed confession about all sorts of stuff I apparently did in Chicago.

Nothing planned for this year. I'm sure the wife will do something interesting.

Our neighbors had a baby yesterday (we think) I wouldn't be surprised if they called everyone today as an April Fools sort of thing.

You didn't tell him about you and me, did you????

I don't go for April Fools jokes. All I am doing today is working, working out, and then going home and to bed.

When my oldest was four we bought our first computer. He loved it! In the early spring that year, I acquired a screen saver that would make the screen look as if it was a window being rained upon from inside the computer. Whatever image was on the screen would degrade as the "water drops" rolled down the screen and dissolved the "ink." On April 1 I waited until the little guy had finished playing a game and then pulled up one of my work docs. Waited until the screen saver had activated and then dissolved about half of the page on the screen before I screamed out for the boy at the top of my lungs. "Get in here and tell me what you did to break the computer!"

He was not amused.

I spent the entire day on guard waiting for some low-life 12-year-old to try and pull something. None of them did. They know better, I guess. Has the word gotten out that I have no sense of humor at all?

Wife is wearing a heart monitor for 48 hours, should I, or not?

(grin)

You, me, the other five guys in the room who took turns... *whistles innocently*

I had my face buried in his chest so he couldn't see me grin, but I really was telling him something along those lines and gods, he stared at me in disbelief for a good ten seconds after I said "April Fools..."

 

[voluptuary_manque]

And think how upset you'd have been if he'd asked if he could come along next year to join the fun! ROFL

And a hug on top.

I still have not used my skill of making a screen shot become a locked screen saver....most people would immediately point to me. Some day, some day

Ooh, evil. I like it.

The worst I can manage is a trembling "we need to talk" over the phone, and then tell him it has to wait till he gets home. Puts him on pins and needles all day long...I haven't done that in awhile though.

I'm a bad actress as it is and his job training just makes that infinitely worse. And today's my day off so I couldn't do anything to anybody at work either.
