And a little wrap for the Samuelians!April has always been my most favoritest month! I always pictured myself getting hitched in the springy month - but year after year it comes and goes and I'm kinda over that now. How bout I get married whenever the freaking man finds me. But now I really obsess over April because of it's prankful charm!
I stretch out my giggles all month long and find any and every reason to make someone wonder about my motives and intentions of daily actions. Yesterday I am proud to announce that I had a decent April Fool's Day. Being a teacher I was excited to include my students in a bit of educational excitement. With their desks facing the back wall, their behavior sticks on BLACK (that's bad!), and a few made up bits and pieces - they were thinking it was a pretty funny day. I felt inclined to spray them with silly string any time they misbehaved....(for some reason, they were more anxious to speak out than usual?!). We learned how to 'short sheet' a bed, and they were disgusted when my skin started falling off the palm of my hand because of some contagious disease. They got a kick out of my letting them put some glue on their hands and then peeling it off. I mos def love my job when I get to laugh right along with my students!
On my way home I cracked up all the way to Katie Hatch's hair salon. I was so excited to write some sort of message on her little blue bug. On the many I thought of. But the best piece of white trash I could come up with was, "Honk if yer Horny" on one side and "I'm Single - Call Me (# included)" on the other side. I knew she'd get a laugh or two out of it - and I surely got a stomach work out over it. Well - knowing she didn't get off work till later I made a friend or two drive down so at least another person could see it. They called and told me they didn't see anything...I was perplexed. Well, later when Katch (Katie Hatch) got off work she called to meet up for running and didn't say a THING!!! I eventually had to bring it up to her (sooo not fun when only YOU can laugh at the tricks!) and she said their was sometimes another blue bug down where she parks and I must've done it on the wrong car. Hmmmm...that bites! Everyone thought that was hilarious that I tagged the wrong car! But....sneaky little Katch....she tells me eventually that the joke was really on me. I had done it to her car - she'd washed it off as soon as some tattle-tell told her about it. BaaHummBugg to them! Whatever...I got a kick out of it!
Such a kick out of it, that I used my remaining car marking pen to spice up Lindsey's car. :) Once at my mom's house I plastered the toilet seats with 'Icy-Hot' for an unsuspecting victim to land their bootie right upon it! Calin my niece, who I regulate on year after year came in asking my what I didn't do anything for April Fools to the family. I claimed forgetfulness, and then grinned with great satisfaction when she screamed as she sat on the toliet. The rest of the day she proceeded to complain about her 'numb, cold, and minty smelling bootie'!
Calin was anxious to get me back and soon enough I saw her wrapping my car up in cellophane. Pounding on the window for her to stop I quickly grabbed my newest secret weapon of "SWACK" (a lovely perfume that literally smells like sweaty bootie crack...not that I have any idea how that smells....but my imagination is pretty vivid!!) spray and chased her as I doused her hair with it. It was difficult for me to attack her because I was wetting my pants hysterically laughing - especially when she all of a sudden stopped and yelled...."WHAT IS THAT?" And then I had to be careful to make sure the wind didn't carry the stench over to myself! She was gagging and rushed inside to jump in the shower.
I literally have never smelt something so repulsive in ALL my life!!! My entire family was laughing sooo hard about the attack on Calin! Keeping in mind that only a few years ago I convinced her to go on a walk with Skylar and I wearing a certain sweatshirt. Just out of the house she realized why Skylar and I couldn't keep a straight face. As she put her hands inside her pockets and felt something unfamiliar - we watched her pull out the mystery objects in her hands only to realize it was the 'elimination' of our dog!!! She was FURIOUS!!! We again were HYSTERICAL!!! I'll admit to one thing...Calin is a total sport! I'm anxious to hear how school went today when she finally realizes there is a very dirty diaper (thank you Scout) in her backpack. (Don't ask my why 'potty humor' seems to be a hit for us Ures....much to mama's chagrin...)
I continued to do a bit here and there to occupy myself the rest of the day. Dipping toothbrushes in salt, short-sheeting some beds, and cranking on a few calls. All in good fun - especially when I hear from Lindsey today about her car smelling of SWACK! Ohhh do I love the month of April!!! I do I do I do!
P.S.: I had to extend the fun to our wards conference weekend up in Utah. It was time I got to know the new Bishopric on a more deep and personal level!!! Succeed I did!!!
