April Fool's Jokes...

Being the only person working on a paper when everybody else is enjoying summer break. And getting even more distracted because of these, so that the paper takes longer to finish.

Receiving and/or telling good news on the phone and getting so enthusiastic that you knock over a freshly filled mug of tea, spilling the contents over computer keyboard, mouse and every sheet of paper that didn't manage to fall off the desk in time. (Happened to me a few days ago)

Mice, too - but rather the ones the cat drags in to play with but doesn't bother to kill, leaving them to run around in the house until you manage to catch and remove them.

Last not least, bird-flu - and the stupid regulations by which our politicians tried to deal with it a couple of years ago.

I am sorry. Tea is a bad thing to waste! Computers too. Two things I couldn't live without.

Noisy, annoying neighbors on the other side of the common wall who turn up the volume on their speakers so much that the pictures fall off your wall. I'm still finding bits of broken glass in the carpet.

My brother contracting German measles... and his saying Scheiße every now and then. I don't even know where he got that! I swear I never taught him that!

I'd like to assign that ol' feeling where the ground seems to be sinking beneath you. Especially when you can only feel it with one leg.
