My funny story friend

Had dinner with a friend and her family today and it was the collection of funny things.

#1 - A story. This friend worked for a time with the Billy Graham crusades. ( please, all you relig-a-phobes relax, she's relatively normal) Anyway, she had this older friend who also worked with the crusade, but her friend's husband was not the religious sort at all. He just kind of " let her do her thing". These Billy Graham folks had a fancy dinner to which the non-Christian husband came. He wanted to share a joke and had everyone's ear. The joke goes," This guy gave his girlfriend a puppy as she boarded a plane. Not knowing what to do with the puppy, she stuck it under her shirt for boarding. After sitting on the plane for a while, a male stewardess says," I know what you have under there. Too bad it's not potty trained." to which she replies with a grimace, " potty trained? It's not even weaned yet !!" The crowd was silent. My friend had to ask to leave the table so that she could die of hysteria. Oh, how I would have loved to be there.

#2 - Her mom, of the young age of 81, was there at dinner too. She shared a story of a parade they went to where a woman my age was wearing too low, low-rise jeans, sitting on a curb, and bending forward. (Reminds me of a certain middle school incident...that's amore.) Anyway, the mom thought to say something to the exposed woman, but another lady did instead, and the low-rise lady did the best she could to put the moon away. My friend concluded the story by saying, " The woman should have said 'yeah, and another crack like that and I am going to have to ask you to leave' ". I am so remembering that line for the next moon I see !!!!!!!

#3 - Lastly, this she and I are playing for another friends daughter's wedding later this month. After drinking a few glasses of wine, she wanted to read through the music. Uh.... ok. We played and her mother and her mother's long haired chihuahua listened on. It went acceptably ( but needs more rehearsing). At one part, the chihuahua starting singing along!!!!! My first reaction was a little self consciousness and.. damn, does it sound that bad !!!!!! Everyone is a critic. After that 6 seconds passed, I couldn't play anymore because I was began to snort from laughing. ( you try to laugh and play a brass instrument) Then, my friend playing piano starting laughing. Then, the mother then says, "Wow. My other chihuahua would sing along with music too." We all laughed.

Oh how I love people that can make me laugh!!!!!
