Fool!

I am a fool!
Most of the day today something had been “off” and I was not quite sure what it was. I came to work and planned to pull an April Fool’s gag on two of my co-workers. One of the jokes I have been planning since last April Fool’s and the other for about the last week.
Well I got busy and procrastinated the planning and prep of my cruel little pranks and, of course, I arrived at work today completely un-prepared for either of them.
I was a little disappointed but there’s always next year so I figured I’d just refine my “plan” and really get’em then.
I went about my business, e-mail, schedules, and photo editing…. But still something seemed not quite right…
At around 4:15 p.m. in our afternoon budget meeting it hit me (keep in mind I showered, got dressed and arrived at work by about ten to eight this morning and it was now 4:15 in the afternoon). I looked down and this is what I saw.


That’s right two different shoes on two different feet. In my defense it was dark in my room when I got dressed this morning and the shoes are the same brand and model, just two years apart and different colors. Needless to say for the rest of the afternoon and until I got home my feet were uncomfortable. Granted they were fine until I noticed my gaff, but unbearable after the fact.
So Yes! I am a bonehead and a fool and even more so because I unknowingly pranked myself and made this SNAFU today of all days.
Happy April Fool’s Day everyone and laugh at me because the entire Springdale office already has.

Sweet running shoes. Although, yes, it is better to wear a matching set.

That's hilarious. You should start wearing them everyday, it could be your thing. Kind of like Kris Cross from the 90s (is that how you spell that?)

Neemah,
"(is that how you spell that?)" your new "catch phrase" (see my Memphis blog entry)?

;)

At first I didn't know what the hell you were talking about, then I checked my last comment. I guess it is my new catch phrase.
