Life As We Knew It

I've decided that my blog before was too stodgy, too serious to reflect the fun natured person that I am. I do love to enjoy that funny joke that nobody else understands. During church services, I do make fun of speakers. So I've come to the decision, why not be me? We spend our lives living up to all these expectations that nobody else really expects of us. To be honest, the expectations we have are non-existent.  Back to my blog, If you got tired of reading my stuff, I do not apologize. I don't apologize for you having your own opinion because that's your job.
So while I was off thinking about how to make this me, I thought of so many funny things that happen I just had to mention them. The first is that people who take me seriously must hate me because I LOVE to tease. On the other end when somebody jokes to me, I cannot stand it. For a non-serious guy, I am pretty sensitive. But I acknowledge that. Why can't we just laugh at ourselves or tease every once in a while? This society is too sensitive to any joking or pranking. Being the one to pour the foam into the school pool should be a joke. But here, our strict rigidity to any rule doesn't allow good fun or any joking.
Another thing is awkwardness. What warrants an awkward moment? I've had so many myself that they can't even be counted. The worst situation is on a date (which I just started doing) when you are trying to make a joke but it turns out nobody understands. Seriously, out of all the looks in the world, the worst is the creeped out face. When I see that, I know not to expect any more dates. Being awkward is partially their fault. The other person doesn't have to make it so uncomfortable. They could at least laugh or pretend (which is always appreciated).
I think out of all the things that could make you laugh so hard you just you-knew-what your pants, the worst is the body. The body is such a weird thing. So many unexplainable things happen it is a joke itself. When people talk about their bodies and that this ear is oozing this type of puss, I don't think that because I'm disgusting, but rather that I don't care or want to know that. I've been in several situations where somebody tries to tell me about something that happened to them and I have been unlucky enough to hear. A knee slapper is when a doctor tries to talk about your body non-chalantly if something is wrong. For instance if you have some embarrassing malady and the doctor tries to ask matter of fact of questions, it ends up being funny. I know several people who talk about their bodies, even while I am eating. The thing I was eating now tastes like what ever the heck it is you just said.
No lie, the things we do in this life are sprinkled with humor and other things. Being ourselves only adds to the much needed comedy that alleviates us of stress.
