Temper Tantrum

I just caught a glimpse of an old episode of "America's Funniest Home Videos" this evening, and as usual there's too much of people who more or less willingly hurt themselves. Not funny. Well, not to me at least. But this one is hilarious, and it really says it all:

Absolutely hilarious, Synnøve and I have just had a very good laugh after allowing ourselves a few minutes away from obligatory work :)

They kept telling me how cunning toddlers can be, and although not realizing it at the time I was probably one of the biggest suckers around for this kind of attention mutiny...

I suppose it's possible to love your children so much that they actually get away with this kind of behavior!!

And I was obviously thinking about, not only children, but certain "grown-ups" as well... I guess patterns like these can be established at a very early age.

Which reminds me my dear friend, you need to read this article, and I don't care how busy you are, just read!!

Remember our discussion the other day?? Well, ENJOY ;)

By the way, the article came via a comment by Lanny Arvan on Barbara Ganley's blog.

Thanks, my friend. The paper is downloaded, and will hopefully be read tomorrow. Although I have no lectures, I do have other things on my mind distracting my thoughts. Only nice ones, but still...

I have strong feeling I might feel a little woozy on Wednesday, but who cares? Don't I deserve it?

Toril said...

Nice distractions should be enjoyed to the fullest, so forget the worries - you'll have a wonderful time ;)

Don't worry about Wednesday, you might have a slight hangover although some of us (me) are likely to get a slight hangover from just a glass of that delicious red liquid!!!

Nobody cares, and you deserve it more than anyone I currently know!

Have fun!! And, btw I do expect a detailed report tomorrow morning and AEAP ;)

As someone else said to me the other day: "Frightfully excited!".

It's been a most remarkably strange day so far, and right now I'm a little shaky to say the least... Talk to you tomorrow. I'll have a lecture at 12.15, see you before then?

Toril said...

Sounds good :)

I hope you're all smiles!!

Karin said...

I sure am... :) :) :)
