Another Coffee Joke

Everyone knows how much I LOVE my coffee. And I love to see or hear coffee jokes.

I must have my coffee as soon as I wake up every morning. Most mornings I have my coffee maker set up and automatically turn on at 6:00 am. Unless it is the weekend or I’m on vacation. Then I usually don’t set it to start automatically – I press the start button as I stumbled past it on the kitchen counter.

On a regular work day, I head straight to the break room and get a cup of coffee to take to my desk. If I have been up late the night before, I might need a second cup of coffee before lunch. So that’s three cups before noon!

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!

Christmas Decor

xmasflamingos

This Christmas card made me think of a great joke to pull on my mother. She has always loved trips to Florida, and Florida has this thing about flamingos. So we kids started buying her crappy things with flamingos on them. Like coffee mugs, blanket throws, curtains, lamps, all kinds of junk. It got to be so much that she has a whole bedroom dedicated to her flamingos collection.

It would be a real hoot to find some of the large plastic flamingos and put them in her yard with Santa hats on them. OMG! She would get such a thrill!
