Oh simple pleasures...
Upon arrival home from church I came to the realization of how simple I really am and how the simplest things make me laugh harder than they probably should. My day began with a very simple laugh. I was slumbering away in my bed when there was a knock on the door, and I sarcastically yelled "If its someone coming to get fast offerings shoot them." And of course it was and after this remark left my mouth I realized how truly awful it was and that that would just be ridiculous, so I made a small chuckle to myself of how lame and rude that was. I realized how much I am not a morning person and hate being woke up.
Then I decided that I was hungry so I proceeded to eat Steele's left over ribs from Applebee's and I realized that ribs aren't something humans usually eat for breakfast and yet I was so happy about it. Yet again a very simple pleasure for my simple mind. But as the day went on things only got better.
I began to get ready for church and my roommate Elaine was getting dressed and wanted to wear my ever so professional looking sweater vest. She asked if her outfit looked good and I just had to laugh, it looked truly ridiculous and I am still laughing about it as I think. Oh hilarious! (no offense Elaine, but honestly!)
Then I was listening to the relief society lesson and the girl in front of me started sniffing the Bubblicious gum the teacher had passed around to see which kind she wanted. Don't get me wrong but I don't want a piece of bubble gum that's been practically up someone's nose, and she deliberated about it for like 5 minutes, that's a lot of time to be sniffing bubble gum!
In Sunday school Jordan's stomach kept growling super loud which brought a grin to my face, but I personally loved when Elaine was talking about Adam and Eve and her concluding sentence was "And that's how we began." I don't know why but I started to tear up with laughter and it just made me extremely happy (not mention giggly).
I won't go into extreme detail about all the simple things I love and how hilarious some things are to me, but I'm not sure if its normal for someone to laugh over an answering machine message for a good half an hour. (oh heaven's Charlie Zollinger!) Or if it's healthy to laugh about plunging toilets. If college kids should really love watching cartoons and ninja turtles, drinking vanilla milk, and playing candyland, but all I know is its the simple things in life that bring me so much joy.
Simple pleasures for simple minds!
