This is my "theme" quote! |
Warning!!!!
Attending public events with me could cause you extreme embarrassment! I cannot be trusted to act mature in certain settings. Be friends with me at your own risk!
Last night I went to a Court of honor for Scouts and they were giving out Wood Badges to 3 adults. There was no hope for me to take it seriously!!
-First some guy blew some weird horn thingy without any warning and I almost peed my pants. -Then they sang some song and a guy said with such a straight face "while we are singing this song please stand when we name the critter you represent"
WHAT THE CRUD?!?
I was looking around watching people popping up proudly in the audience while singing some weird song and everyone was just acting like that was normal. I was dying of laughter inside hoping I wasn't supposed to know what "critter" I represented because I wasn't in any condition to stand up!
-Finally I couldn't hold it in any longer...I busted out in out in crazy loud laughter-OOPS! James almost had to escort me out of the stake center gym.
James, Christian and I all had to contain our laughter for the rest of the meeting. I just can't take ceremonies like that seriously...I think I am so immature. I shouldn't be allowed in public. Luckily I held it together after that and laughed until I was crying all the way home! My poor family...James and Christian are so nice and quiet and then they have to have me as a wife and mom.
I guess I try not to take life too seriously! I have to find even the smallest amount of humor in everyday life or I will literally go insane!
I apologize ahead of time for any inappropriate laughter you may hear from me. I am supposed to be teaching Averi proper behavior. Boy is she in trouble!
I am so thankful for a sense of humor though! I think almost everything seems easier to handle with a good dose of laughter.
Above all else: go out with a sense of humor. It is needed armor. Joy in one's heart and some laughter on one's lips is a sign that the person down deep has a pretty good grasp of life.
