5 Things That Make Me Laugh (Hysterically)

I don't know if you've noticed yet but I love to laugh and I love laughing and laughing gives me love etc. So here are a few, very few, things that just make me hysterical


1. Stress
don't ask why, but when crunch time comes along I'm prone to screeching fits of what sounds vaguely like laughter


2. Skiamaru Nara
this guy right here, I just love him so much! And Temari.


3. Julie and Julia
Or more specifically Julia


4. Joshua's Friends and Teamates
I love all of them 'cause they're so cute and funny... I also like to talk about them a lot.

5. Graceling and Fire
two of my favourite books in the whole wide world and I crack up everytime I read them

Boys, Balls, and Bugs

I've decided that I love all boys under the age of thirteen! They are just the most fascinating people ever and so adorable. Just a little while ago I went to one of Joshua's soccer games. Now, we're in Canada and more specifically Edmonton so all the boys, save three, are Asian. There were a ton, I mean clouds of mosquitoes and everyone was looking like they were doing some kind of funky chicken dance, wavin' their arms everywhere. Eventually one of the boys caught one of the pesky bugs and stared in wonderment at the twitching wings and convulsing legs. The assistant coaches' son Jerry, who's Asian, proceeded to talk about a kid in his class who had caught a mosquito and had slowly killed it, pulling of its legs, wings and finally the head. During the whole story, all the boys were completely engrossed in the agonizing death and Jerry's face looked so evilly gleeful that I exploded with guffaws. I'm pretty sure that they think I'm a little messed in the head. (not saying that I'm not but still)
