it's the you you tell 'em

Oooooh, I've got a new favourite joke!!!
"What do you get if you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?"

I've always had an acquired taste for jokes. As a teen my long standing favourite was "What do an orange and lemon have in common? Neither can drive a tractor" And of late it was one the children and I liked together - "What cheese can you hide a horse in?" Marscapone. (A Southern accent has that one work better but I like it nonetheless.)

Today I need to remember to laugh. Upon waking way before the alarm this morning I was aware of a nanosecond of blankness before all the concerns came cascading in - "I'll need to remember to take my MOT cert with me when I take the car" "Just how many Christian Aid bag drop offs can I make on my way to taking it to the garage and still get back in time for the digging guy?" "How can I find out if I paid for a St George's Day lunch?" "How silly will I sound this morning when I make that phonecall cos I'm not fully convinced I have that person's name right?" etc etc. I'm aware that I fidget a lot and think I'd be really overweight (given the amount I eat) if it wasn't for all my nervous energy. But I also wonder how better for my health it would be if I wasn't fretting all the time. (Except I'd be enormous with the amount of cakes I enjoy!!)

More later...
