You're friend sounds like lots of fun. I'm sure he'll be missed.

I used to be more wacky in college. Mostly cause I had time to think of crazy stuff to do.

One spring we had so much snow that winter that half the sidewalks were under water. They put out pallets on all the sidewalks so we could walk over the water which was several inches deep in some places. A friend of mine and I made some signs, stapled them to sticks, and stuck them in the snowbanks next to the "boardwalks". The signs said "No swimming", "No diving off docks", "No fishing", etc. I noticed a number of people got some laughs out of it including some of the faculty. I don't think anyone knew who'd done it. We did our dirty work early on a Sat morning when everyone else was sleeping.

I've gone and some carwheels in my yard in the rain and puddle jumped with my daughter.

Instead of flipping people off (which my daughter would obviously emulate) I stick out my tongue at anyone who annoys me. Even if they flip me off I just stick out my tongue. I think it kindof shows them how juvenile their gesture is and half the time I get a smile out of it. Besides I think it's more fun.

I love to swerve my car in the road when there's no other cars around. Just enough to make the kids wiggle back and forth. I usually get lots of laughs out of that.

I like wearing my spongebob boxers that say "I have issues" on one side and "Do I look like I'm kidding?" on the other. Hubby always rolls his eyes at me when I wear them.

I guess I'm kindof crazy anyway. I talk in my sleep, tease hubby, tease my daughter, and have fun with life.

One time the kids were having a bad day, one of them had just started something like the 3rd tantrum of the morning and I was at a loss how to handle it. I was frustrated and stumped. I did the only thing I felt like doing. Flopped down on the floor, kicked my feet in the air, and yelled. Had my own little tantrum. All the kids stopped to look at me, especially the one mid-tantrum. They all laughed and were in a pretty good mood from then on. Me too. Being crazy is GREAT.
