How To Have Fun

takin' a break from day-to-day life for awhile. i thought i'd post the following ideas that can help us all lighten up and have some fun with one another. as the little sign on my nightstand says: "calculated mischief is invigorating".

1) Sit in your car next to a busy road while wearing sunglasses and point a hairdryer at passers-by. See if they slow down.

2) When leaving the zoo, run out into the parking lot while yelling "They've gotten loose! Run for your lives!"

3) Skip rather than walk.

4) Run up to someone you don't know, pretending you do know them. Give them a hug while proclaiming "how have you been?! I haven't seen you in SO long!"

5) Next time you're out in a public place walking around, suddenly stop, throw your head back, slap your knee and announce "NOW I get it!" then begin laughing loudly.

6) Every time someone asks you to do something, ask if they want fries with that.

7) Don't use any punctuation when speaking.

8) Finish all of your sentences with "in accordance to prophecy".

9) Put decaf in the coffee maker at work or at home for 3 weeks. Once everyone is over their addiction, switch to espresso.

10) Order a diet water with a serious face.

11) Go to a poetry recital and ask why the poems don't rhyme.

12) When money comes out of the ATM, scream "I WON! I WON!"

13) Sing along at the opera.

14) Next time you visit the doctor, sit down next to someone and say you're here for that "highly contagious rash", then start itching yourself all over.

and last but not least...

15) Ask for/receive and give at least one hug a day. Ok, so this isn't mischevious. But it will help lighten the load of daily living.
