Pranking. Not that much, only pranked one person and prank called work (which got me some extra hours).

Bonus Question:

The "Glenda the Garden Fairy" is back from vacation ( I think she was wintering at Alaskan Mutts house with Fred )

I don't have a green thumb and don't try to grow anything or do any yard work. If I had enough room I wish I could grow some green beans.


Extra Credit Question:

What was the last thing someone asked for your advise on ?
Told my coworker not to quit last night, unless she already had something else lined up.

Did they take it ?
She said she already sort of had something else lined up.

What was your last "Do as I say,not as I do " moment ?
Telling my sister she should visit our mother today when I bailed out (actually, I have to work tonight).

In the end, looks like we're both visiting her tomorrow.

Happy Good Friday everyone.

Today's Question(s):

So tell us, did you end up "pranking" or getting "pranked" yesterday for April Fools ?
LOL.. it wasn't actually a prank but somebody at the office sent out an email yesterday saying that the Hal 900 computer will let everyone know that he (the person at work) will be working from Jupiter.. Other than that, I didn't prank anyone nor did get I get pranked by anyone else.

Bonus Question:

The "Glenda the Garden Fairy" is back from vacation ( I think she was wintering at Alaskan Mutts house with Fred )

What will she be helping you do in your yard ?
Hmmm... does she do any painting? I'm repainting the block fence in the backyard, then pull out all the weeds.

What do you wish you could grow at your house ?
Hmmm... at the house? Well.. I tried to grow something inside the house but the carpet and tiles were not ideal for growing stuff.. It was also tough to use the shovel to dig a hole inside the house.. I also went to my local nursery one time and asked them if they had a money tree and they said yes... they pointed at a small tree that was expensive. So I went ahead and bought it, but no money grew on it... It had a lot of green... leaves. I guess it was a money tree for them because they made a lot of money on it.

Extra Credit Question:

What was the last thing someone asked for your advise on ?
They asked me for advice on how to get out of the trouble they got into when they followed a previous advice I gave them... - Most of the time people ask me for advice on computers and guns.

Did they take it ?
I hope so..

Just for Fun:

What was your last "Do as I say,not as I do " moment ?
I usually do that on a bad day bowling!

I guess I did make a mistake... I did do a little "pranking" over in my "Did you know...?" thread. I told them that I was going to step down and find somebody else to take my place. I think I got most of them!

Happy April Fools!
