My Sense of Humor

There are a few things that make me laugh out loud.
My son usually takes the cake with that one. Tonight, it's his stupid Elmo flashlight that is quite humorous. Or, more specifically, the fact that it's 9:42 and I've resorted to unscrewing the light bulb in his lamp in order for him to stay in bed and go to sleep. So he's turned on his Elmo flashlight in order to read his books. Every 30 seconds or so I hear "ha ha ha aha ha" in Elmo-voice, which means he's turned on his flashlight (it automatically turns off after 30 seconds).
It reminds me of the major emergency we had here a few weeks ago when Toby blew out a socket by sticking a penny in it. After the fire went out (yeah, there was a night light in the other socket and that burned up nicely) we had to replace the whole outlet. Four thirty in the afternoon (in the winter) is not a good time to have the electricity off in order to replace a light socket only to discover that the only flashlight you own is programmed to laugh like Elmo every time you need to turn it on. Not so funny at the time, but hilarious now.

LOL Cats (see link at right) is another thing that I found that makes me laugh out loud. Take silly pictures of cats and write out captions as if the cats were speaking. Just plain funny, whether you're a cat person or not. Check out the site any time you need a laugh. They also have a "totally looks like..." category where you can see how two random famous people totally look alike. It's hard to explain but well worth your time to get a good laugh in. And it's free!
