Been in a funk all day... who has a funny story to share?

I have had zero motivation today. Just feeling off and blah-- I don't want to do anything but sit on the couch and watch Hell's Kitchen on my laptop. Which is pretty much what I've done all day, except for a 45 minute walk with the dog this evening. 

MH came back from his run and stood naked in the living room, stretching. He looked like a gorilla in a zoo. LOL

Anyone else have a funny story to share? The more I laugh, the better I feel...

Sorry hon.  I've been feeling low too.  I just want to curl up somewhere - however, with my step daughter here for the month and my parents visiting, I don't have anywhere to hide.

My 4 year old nephew got a GI Joe toy last night from my parents for his birthday.  It's a tank that fires little 4" missiles.  He insisted that everyone clear the room every time he fired the missiles... that travelled maybe 6" from the tank.  He would get really upset when people "weren't being safe and running for cover". 

I work from home most of the time.  Yesterday, I was doing laundry throughout the day.  I had a fresh from the dryer load of my dogs' blankets from the couch sitting on my office floor.  My littlest pooch (4 lbs) hopped into it.  She spent the rest of the day defending "her" basket from the other dogs (5 lbs each).  The other dogs would come up and sniff the basket, then little girl would pop out of the blankets and growl at them.  When they would leave, she'd get back down in the blankets.  My husband brought in another laundry basket and set up the other girls.  They looked like two pirate ships threatening each other every once in a while.  They would pop up, growl and taunt each other, then go back below deck.

Hope those help.  They were the bright spots of my day yesterday.

The story of your Pirate Pups totally brought a smile to my face! LOL

Sorry your in a funk. I hope the haze clears soon

When MH gets out of the shower he like to come out all nekid and do his "junk dance" making his man parts flop around while pretending he's smacking something in front of him...lol. Im not sure exactly what he's smacking but it makes me LOL everytime.

Boo for feeling glum

I called my friend today and started singing the whole happy birthday song only to find out I called the wrong number. The lady started laughing and said her birthday wasn't until November but thank you for making her day!

OMG, now that's funny!!!

I had once received a call from a friend with some juicy gossip on "'T", I meant to call my sister and fill her in.....but instead I called "T" without realizing it and started spilling all the goods, Unfortunately I did NOT catch myself, until she said "Hey, Tish.....this is "T" oops, it was a few years before she talked to me again, I felt terrible!

I can't decide if this is funny or makes me angry.

I think this passage makes me the most angry:

"As one of the more up-market drinking establishments in the Mankato area, Pub 500?s demographic broadly fits that of the type of women more likely to drink when pregnant ? those who are financially stably, live in an urban area and are aged between 35-44. One female customer praised the idea as being 'less embarrassing than going to the drug store.'"

Once I got past the lack of editorial oversight, I have a hard time believing that financially "stably" 35-44-rear-old women are most likely to drink while pregnant. Maybe we should educate women properly about fertility rather than offer pregnancy tests in bars. I fear that the movie "Idiocracy" is where we're headed if we need pregnancy tests in bars.

I am so thankful that site had tags with names in them-- I had NO idea who a lot of those celebrities were! I'm so out of the loop...

This is mind-bogglingly ludicrous. They've gone to plaid...

I was really hoping it was a satirical news story, but sadly, I think it's real.

My brother informed me and my sister that we each need to have six children to combat the effects of "Idiocracy".
