He wasn't even drunk either.
It's amazing how sometimes when your brain is convinced of something...perception IS reality.

Ever trick anyone into eating dog food at a party?
Walk around with a bag of chips or something feeding people..then the unsuspecting victim gets the dry dog food instead of the chip?
One time I done that to a guy and he chewed it up and swallowed it like nothing even happened.

Joke was on you that time.

Joke was on you that time.

It really was. I was literally rolling around on the floor laughing so hard and that person was like what is so funny?

One of my best friends (ha, who am I trying to kid, one of my very few friends because I don't get out much) told me about his sister giving him some "chocolate covered raisins" whenever he was young. He ate some trying to like them and then noticed his sister uncontrollably laughing, so he asked why she was laughing. She had given him rabbit pellets (poop)!!! I laughed so hard because he was still so innocent and surprised about it at 25 years old. I'm terrible at pranks because I rarely think about something good until long after the fact. The only prank (and it's not really a prank but a lie) I can remember was whenever my daughter was 3 or 4. I needed to go to Dollar Tree and there was a Purple Penguin beside it. There were lots of kids in PP, so I told her to be on her best behavior because PP was a daycare and I didn't want to have to take her there while I shopped. It worked beautifully! Years later she said that daycare gives ice cream to everyone. It's a frozen yogurt shop!!!

I do feel bad for being so deceitful and basically lying to my kid, but we've talked it through and both of us laugh every time we see PP now. At 9 years old, she reminds me about it every time too

I had two nests that had been being sit on out in the palace.
But every time I looked there was a different duck on them so I don't think any one duck was actually committed but they sit on them enough to start most of them.
13 eggs total all at various stages of incubation, a couple of them are pretty heavily damaged.
I was shocked to find three that were about ready to hatch already had internal pips!
Anyway I decided to just pull all the eggs and put them in the incubator.
Here's the rockin roller now..

So Clicker has grown a ton... mostly in width. I now call her Lidus. As in cellulitis.
