Hardy Har Har

"You should always remember to laugh at yourself". This was an expression that my mother, and grandmother before her, uttered to me an untold amount of times while growing up. I remember being very confused by it for the longest time and not really understanding what it meant. However, I'm glad it stuck with me and I took it to heart because Lord knows I've had an amplitude of opportunity to do just that. Including right this moment...I just started laughing hysterically (albeit, under my breath) and yes, at myself. I remember getting back from lunch around 1:15pm, thinking that I had to go to the bathroom quite badly after all the water I consumed this morning. I tend to get very busy at work and forget to go to the bathroom. Silly yes, but very true. So, as I was just sitting here I couldn't remember whether I had relieved myself and did a couple quick kegels to see. After not receiving an adverse reaction, I decided that I had in fact gone, and proceeded to tell myself that and break into my uncontrollable fit of laughter (all under my breath and none helping my headache). To which it could also be stated, I would have found out in a hurry if I hadn't in fact visited the little girl's room, since I know that laughter couldn't have contained what may have remained in my bladder! So, now everyone is free to laugh at me as well, but do not forget to laugh at yourself as well, and often!
