I just wanted to jot down some quick thoughts that I had today.
Regarding my tweet from Borders about losing humor, here’s what I said:
to the guy who couldn’t laugh along with his wife and daughter at a book…. find humor in everything and you’ll never lose it.
I was looking through the literature section tonight and heard this mother/daughter laughing at what was obviously a book containing pictures of funny cats. I overheard them saying “let’s see what daddy thinks about it”. And then a guy cuts in and says “Let’s NOT see what daddy says about it”. Â The guy went on to say that the only funny thing about the situation was how the girls were reacting to it.
This is what got me. I find humor everywhere, and when I don’t understand what other people are laughing about, I try. So why wasn’t he? This is different than what I go through. I don’t normally have two very important pieces of my life trying to get me to laugh, it’s usually just me. But I laugh at myself. My tweet from earlier today about the backwards pirate. I laughed my ass off for a good 20 minutes… AT MYSELF.
I’ve asked Megan to make sure that I don’t lose my sense of humor. However, I doubt that she’ll ever let me.
So I’m going to go with: Find humor in everything and you’ll never lose sense of it.
