Some of my work mates are now officially sure that I am a total whack job... not that a really blame them after today.
Last night I had put the "Web of Desire" from season 4 of Hercules on before I went to be - one of the ever present moral message was - don't accept rides from strangers.
Okay... so this is all good. Fast forward to today...
It all started with a quick cuppa...
We were down stair getting our respective "Joes" when a ute pulled up beside us... it was for a company called Hercules Crane Hire... On the back panel of the ute was the slogan
Hercules
"Don't accept lifts from strangers"
Obviously it was a play on the 'lift' as in hydrolic kind...
I took one look and this and started giggling a little manically. My friends looked at me kind of strange... the more I looked at them and the sign the more I started to laugh... then when I tried to explain that I couldn't tell them what I was laughing at because it was a personal joke and they wouldn't understand, the worse I became... I ended up snorting and crying with laughter at the ridiculousness of my situation...
My salvation came when I ran into one friend who at least shared some of the same interests as me and so I was able to blurt out - between gales of laughter and tears, the gist of the hillarity. Otherwise I think I would stll be going!
That was my random moment of fun for the day... stupid, personal and just down right funny to me - and if I can make myself laugh... well then i am doing okay!
