There are certain people that you can be “yourself” around. You can be stupid and goofy without worrying about the fact that you are being stupid and goofy. You can laugh over things which the rest of the world might label you as immature for laughing at. And you don’t give a flying flip if they do call you immature, because you and your silly friend both know that it’s the rest of the world that’s crazy, not the two of you!<\/p>\n
I have a friend like this. Often, we exchange insane emails through the day, call each other names, respond by writing what the other person wrote – only backwards, send goofy pictures as responses. Sometimes she and I talk over the phone while we are at work. But that is dangerous! When you are sitting in the middle of a relatively quiet cube farm, it is really hard to hold the laughter in while someone is on the other end of the line making strange noises and such. The human anatomy is not designed to withstand the pressure of repressed laughter. That’s how people lose their spleens.<\/p>\n
Here is a recent email exchange that helped this Silly Girl and I make it through an afternoon. If you have a warped sense of humor you will get a kick out of it. If not… well, go take a flying flip right off my weblog then! (Just make sure you don’t hurt yourself. And come back tomorrow.)<\/p>\n

ME: Hey Baby, here are the pics I used for the speech. The one of us making faces is in there too. I think there are 10 or 11 pics. The speech went well. It was cool because I projected the pictures onto a giant screen in the auditorium. So there was this jumbo picture of me making a horrendous face.

SILLY GIRL: cool <\/p>\n
ME: looc
\n SILLY GIRL: boof <\/p>\n
ME: I just had an image of someone pummeling another person with a colon tied off on both ends like a balloon. Heh heh!
\n SILLY GIRL: ewwww sounds gross <\/p>\n
ME: sounds like “boof”
\n SILLY GIRL: BOF <\/p>\n
ME: Beasty Old Fem
\n SILLY GIRL: Boys Oogling Freaks <\/p>\n

\n SILLY GIRL: HA HA! Big Ostrich Farts <\/p>\n
ME: Bleeding Osteo Ferosis
\n SILLY GIRL: Bloody Oreo Fix <\/p>\n
ME: You win! That one’s the best! Sounds like some English chick who’s desperate for her tea and cookies!
\n SILLY GIRL: I’m the weiner!<\/p>\n
