do something silly every day

Held my dog like a baby and rocked him to sleep singing nursery rhymes…dumbass pug. He was snoring in two seconds and it held my biological clock at bay while I giggled at how stupid we both looked.

Thanks to my best friend, every day has at least ONE silly moment or conversation! Whether it just be making a joke, or randomly waking up and deciding to go to Reno for the day (when it’s several hours away), I’ve really been making an attempt to have as much silliness in my life as possible.

I’ve loved trying other people’s suggestions too! Connie’s bubble wrap by the bed made for an interesting morning—and it scared my kitten a little!

My son is six months old… if I didn’t do silly things I wouldn’t be a very good mummy!

Last night I was cleaning up my room and found a big scrap of bubble wrap leftover from an amazon.com package (thank you bana!!). I decided to put it in front of my bed so that the first thing I did this morning was to step on it and make big crackle pop sounds. Ah the joys of bubble wrap!

Today I bought fruits from the fruit vendor around the corner from my office for no reason other than they were a kind of fruit I’ve never seen before and had tough, leathery skin like a snake, shaped like an acorn and smelled like durian.

in my wife’s car. “Honey, did you see my phone?” “No.”

Turns out she was sitting on it and didn’t even notice. Eek.

where i live in hong kong there are trams. i’ve been trying to flatten coins by placing them on the “tracks,” but i haven’t succeeded yet because they go too slow. for anyone who’s done this on train tracks, it’s one of the funnest things ever! i’m going to stake out spots where the trams go flat and fast. hopefully that would work!

Recently I’ve taken to mashing my bananas in a bowl before eating them. They seem more enjoyable and have a richer mouthfeel that way. Silly, no?

Needless to say – they’re gone now.

All 35 of them. They are standing guard in my livingroom, just in case there are any interlopers that come and try to dampen our Christmas spirit. Hairdresser man is particularly vicious.
