Fool Me Once

Happy April Fool’s Day. I wonder who is going to be brave enough to try to pull a prank on me? I do not really like jokes like that, but it seems there is always someone who wants to be a wise guy and try to pull a trick on April Fools Day.

Last year someone played a trick on me at work. They put a cardboard box on my desk like I had received a package in the mail. They had cut a hole in the bottom of the box and filled it up with styrofoam peanuts. So when I picked up the box to see who it was from and what it might be, the bottom dropped out and all the peanuts went flying all over my desk and my cubicle. What a mess!

It was funny – but it was not fun picking up all those awful peanuts. If I never see another styrofoam peanut again in my life it will be too soon!
