Sorry for Laughing

Funniest thing happening today: I was cooking, while Tucker was getting his running shoes on. He stood up, gave me a goofy grin and said, "well, off I go!" Then proceeded to walk head first into the open cupboard. It wasn't hidden or anything - it was just open minding its own business when Tucker's head gave it quite a start. 
I don't know why people hitting themselves is so funny, but when I think of that boy freshman year from India who jumped headfirst into the ceiling, or when that girl fell off the last step after seminary wearing pajamas, or even when a girl I knew when I was 10 tripped on a rug and farted in the process, I have to smile, and maybe giggle some.

  1. i was amused, but the girl who's trip triggered her flatulence, was the one that got me: snorting in a silent room of people waiting for class to start.
