Yesterday, around 3:00 PM. Driving on Park Boulevard, Joshua Tree National Park. We drive past a sign that says “Sheep Pass Campground.”
Me: You know, I bet you could get a really good night’s sleep there.
The Raven: [near-silent groan]
Me: You know, because of the sheep passing…
The Raven [interrupting]: Uh-huh.
[pause of 45 seconds or so]
Me: See, it’s hilarious because you could count…
The Raven [interrupting, a bit more emphatically]: Right. Got it.
You could see that one coming a mile away… She had the right idea to intercept it early—or at least try to.
The photo is gorgeous! Looks like a good place to—Oh, never mind.
Well, I, For one, thought your joke H*I*L*A*R*I*O*U*S !!!
But I am probably dumber than Raven. I mean, just really, really slightly. OR! Maybe I am simply EASIER TO AMUSE (?)
It is true that My Friend Brian’s wife Valerie is usually ROLLING HER EYES at Brian’s jokes when I am rolling on the floor laffing.
Perhaps it is the Juvenile Sense of Humor Thing…
