I just coughed.

While drinking water.

Which caused the water to leave my mouth at a high rate of speed.

Which caused an arc of water about four feet long to spread from my mouth, across my desk, to splatter the teacher sitting across from me.

Which caused me to try to apologize, which caused the remaining water to go down into my lungs, which caused a couple minutes of choking and gagging.

I fail. I fail at life.

Laughs out loud that someone else has done that.
Look at it this way, they'll respect your personal space!

No, no, that's awesome! How often do we get to see slapstick in real life? Not enough, I say.

Um, as long as it's not me.

Sit beside the breakfast table
Think about your troubles
Pour yourself a cup of tea
Then think about the bubbles

You can take your teardrops
And drop 'em in a teacup
Take them down to the riverside
And throw them over the side
To be swept up by a current
Then taken to the ocean
To be eaten by some fishes
Who were eaten by some fishes
And swallowed by a whale
Who grew so old
He decomposed

He died and left his body
To the bottom of the ocean
Now everybody knows
That when a body decomposes
The basic elements
Are given back to the ocean

And the sea does what it oughta
And soon there's salty water
Not too good for drinking
'Cause it tastes just like a teardrop
So they run it through a filter
And it comes out from a faucet
And it pours into a teapot
Which is just about to bubble
Now think about your troubles, now

Danny Thomas had a fifty year career, partly based on his ability to do a perfect spit take. You, sir, are a natural.


And this is coming from someone who once spent an hour of rehearsal, trying to teach an actor how to do a spit take.

That just made getting out of bed worthwhile.

I may have to metaquote you again (OK?). You're on a roll!

Have I ever told you how much I heart you?

I haven't done this.
But, I did sneeze while eating a rice cake.
Water dries.
Chewed rice cakes make cement.

And, you don't fail unless you fail to try again. Get back up on that glass of water!
(I did the sneeze thing a second time too.)

How is that not awesome?

Well, I mean not for you. Or the teacher. But for LJ? Yes!

No, you win at natural comic timing, which you have in spades. :-D

Lucky for me(and the monitor)I put down my water before reading LJ. Otherwise I would have drenched my monitor, and probably choked as well.

Yes, this post had my laughing my ass off...

Hey, it's been a while.
Um.
I'm finished being depressed now so I'm ready to add back the people that I cut because I didn't want them to see me "like that."
How are you?
Do you want to be friends again?
(Do you even remember me?)

Of course I remember you! And I'm glad to see you back. :)
