11. Specify that your drive-thru order is "to go".
12. Sing along at the opera.
13. Put mosquito netting around your work area and play tropical sounds all day at work.

15. Five days in advance, tell your friends you can't come to their party because you're not in the mood.

19. Tell your children over dinner "due to the economy, we are going to have to let one of you go."
20. And the final way to keep a healthy level of insanity ... e-mail this to someone to make them smile. It's called therapy
 
That's good....I think I've read this before:thumbup: I don't think I could keep a straight-enough face to do many of these though!
 
Love it, especially #18 since we have a zoo membership and go regularly. :)it was just the laugh I needed today.
 
Thanks for the smile, Kristin. This was fun to read!
 
That is hysterical!! Thanks for sharing!!

I love the "Diet Water"!! Just got back from dinner, shoulda tried it then!!
 
No matter how many times I see this is still brings a smile to my face. Thanks for sharing and I'd love to try the hairdryer one! Do you think a mini-van will work?
 
Oh my gosh! I usually hate reading this stuff, but I could read the first one before I clicked on the thread and it was good so I had to read the others. I was trying to picture myself doing some of this stuff. I can't wait to say "do you want fries with that?" to my kids in the morning. I wish I had a job where there was an intercom. I would totally do that paging myself thing w/o disguising my voice. That's hilarious. I would love to order diet water and specify that my order is to go from the drive thru...on the same order! I may actually share this on my e-mail with some people. I've never seen this one before.
 
I am definitely going to order a Diet Water the next time I go out to eat. :)

Oh my gosh, this is HILARIOUS!!! IT's nearly 12:30 am and I'm sitting here at my kitchen island after coming home from a show and laughing out loud and crying. Just picturing some of these things is cracking me up.

Thanks for the laugh!!:chef:
