April Fool's, April Schmooze-Let's Just Booze!


I’ve never really been a fan of April Fool’s Day.

Don’t get me wrong, I have a sense of humor. It just seems so lame to play a prank on someone and then yell, "April Fool's!"

Not to mention, a lot of people are expecting jokes today, so there really is no element of surprise--unless your middle name is gullible. (Remember in Waynes World 2 when Wayne says to Cassandra: “Do you think I’m a gull-a-bull? Or even a gull-a-calf?” Haha, love that movie.)

Anyway, moving on. Maybe I dislike April Fool’s Day because I’m often the one being fooled and never the fool-ee.

Take last night, for instance. I’m over at The Hoff’s, and while he’s brushing his teeth I decide to take over the remote. To my immense delight, I find that the “Sex and the City” movie is on HBO. Oh, happy day! So, I turn it on and force The Hoff to watch it with me. His face was hidden in his pillow a good majority of the time—until any female nudity surfaced. Then he really perked up. (No pun intended.)

Around 12:35 a.m., he turns to me and says, “Babe, I’m really sorry, but I just farted.” I make my normal, “gross” reaction and scoot away from him. He starts laughing, pulls me closer to him as I scramble to get away and says those two little words that make me cringe. I wasn’t sure whether to be annoyed or relieved.

Five minutes into the holiday, and I’d already been fooled. Wonder how many more times that will happen today...dear God, I hope none.

To make today more interesting/fun for everyone, I have a new proposition: April Booze Day. It’s not like we have an abundance of drinking holidays to look forward to this month, so we may as well ring it in with a bang. (That’s what she said.)

Anyone else in favor?
