Humor of the Day : Not-So-Thin-Mints



So, I was driving home from work yesterday and I suddenly had a slight panic attack. I realized that the day was humorless. There was absolutely nothing throughout my day at work that made me laugh. Nothing. What would I write about in my blog?

But then, I had a revelation. I realized I could always change the rules of my blog. So a new rule has been added to my blog --"If thou does not encounter any humor or any incident that caused thou to smile or laugh, thou shall rely on a humorous event from a previous day."

Realizing that I could now find something to write about, I relaxed and turned my attention to the radio. And then, it happened; I heard a news story that brought a smile to my face.

Evidently, a 400 lb woman was arrested for attacking her roomate over a box of Girl Scout cookies -- Thin Mints, no less. Realizing that her Thin Mints were gone, the woman attacked her sleeping roomate.

Besides laughing at the fact that this woman went nuts when she realized her Thin Mints were gone, this news story made me think of Ed and how he "hides" his chocolate (mostly M&Ms) on the top shelf of our pantry. When he first started hiding his chocloate there, it really was a safe spot for his stash. But once the secret got out, and once the rest of us in the house realized we really could reach the top shelf of the pantry, Ed's chocolate is no longer safe.

One can only hope that someday.... calm, patient Ed does not go ballistic when he realizes that "someone" has tampered with his not-so-hidden-chocolate stash...lol

  1. LOL - this reminds me of th $50 worth of homemade cookies I purchased for charity last week. I mailed many to Derek and froze the rest figuring I would pull them out for special occasions. Well I found out this week that frozen cookies taste as good as fresh cookies. They are all gone. Thus "I've gone off track"
