Keeping Up the Appearances of a Blog

Life as I have come to know it.

"If we couldn't laugh we would all go insane."

I was driving to work yesterday morning and I heard those Jimmy Buffett lyrics and poof, my mind was back to my last year of college. My husband is a huge Buffett fan and I remember sitting in my car driving home from school with his borrowed cd playing in my car listening to that line over and over again and thinking that if there was ever a theme for me and my husband both this would be it. I never laughed so much in my life the first couple of months after meeting him. Pretty much I'm drawn to people who are just funny and naturally bubbly, people who don't take life or themselves too seriously. So I was immediately drawn to his silly personality, actually still am. For instance, he is an electrical engineer and for one of his last classes he had to do some extra boring power-point presentation and he decided to "jazz" it up a bit by having a cartoon of a baby crawling across the top of every slide. Just something silly and random that had nothing to do with the presentation itself but I bet it sure kept those engineers attention. I mean lets face it, most engineers are not known for having witty personalities, they just usually don't fit that mold. And to this day I can count on a good laugh at least once a day. Sometimes life just plain sucks and its nice to know that there are people out there who in the midst of it can make you smile. I hope I am one of those people.
