Meshoogie's Loves To Play & Be Silly!
Meshoogie's Loves To Play & Be Silly!
Dressing to make
myself smile & this makes others smile too, (in bright colors with
scarves, preferably with fringes, tied to my outfit wherever possible)!
Being bubbly,
Taking bubble baths, blowing bubbles!
Breaking into
dance at any opportunity, (with music on TV commercials, with my mop or
broom, down the isles of grocery store)!
Singing nonsense
songs, (I make it up as I go along), to my furry kids. I think they love it!
They always request an encore!
Making puns,
joking around and generally being silly!
Rhyming
everything with everything!
Babbling and
bantering!
Serving food
garnished into smiley face-works great with scrambled eggs& bagels!
Playing
"Catch Me Catch Me" and "Peek a Boo" with little kids
and with my guy!
Walking with my
dog while wearing my pajamas-even in the rain!
Drawing with
sidewalk chalk!
Playing with
Slinkies!
Watching fire
flies at night and clouds during the day!
Finding faces
(preferably smiley ones) in nature (leaves, trees, wood, clouds, etc.), and
feeling that the whole world smiles at me!

Playing the Air
Guitar! In fact I am thinking of posting the following sign on a telephone
pole at a traffic light: "Air Guitar Lessons, Call ....! "
Asking how much
each item is at the Dollar Store!
Going to Gem
& Mineral Stores and asking if they carry Kryptonite!
Asking for
prices on the phony electronics & computer props they use for display
while my husband shops for real furniture!
Asking the check
out clerk at the grocery store to make a wish and pull-after I sign my
credit card receipt and they get a copy and I get a copy-similar to what you
do with a wish bone!
Saying yes when
the waiter asks me if I would like some pepper from his giant shaker, then
after only one particle comes out, saying "Too much! Send it
back!"-but in such a way that the waiter know I was just being silly!
Ordering Gefilte
Fish at seafood restaurants or Manechewitz wine when asked if I would like a
cocktail-then pretending that I am appalled (in a whimsical way) that these
are not considered fish/wine!
Ringing all the
door bells in that aisle of the hardware store!
Having a pillow
fight in that aisle of the Design Center!
Looking around
in Female Big & Tall stores till they notice me! (This was funnier when
I was a size 2. I am 4' 10.5"!)
Putting out
picture frames along with the pictures that come with them when you buy
them, then telling made up stories about each like they are distant
relatives of mine, when I give a tour of my home, then let the guests know
at the end that I was joshing!
Pretending that
dust balls are actually running away because they hear me coming for them,
when I am sweeping and they fly away from the breeze my motion creates. I
try tip toeing and being real sneaky, but they still attempt a get-a-way. I
eventually catch 'em with persistence. Some of the smart ones run under the
bed or dresser and I tell them "I'll let' you go this time!"
Smiling!
Pretending! Schnoogling! Skipping! Laughing! Loving! Praying and Playing!
Being Surrounded
by Kitties & Puppies!
