I have a dry sense of humor – sometimes it takes a minute to ‘get it’ when I proffer a zinger, but when the light bulb goes on, laughter ensues. Usually. Sometimes the crickets are chirping, but I can count that as laughter, right?

My hubby has a dry and sarcastic sense of humor – he’ll proffer a zinger with a dead serious tone and face, often making people wonder if he was joking or serious. Usually he’ll end up laughing and they’ll follow suit.

Of course he does get annoyed when we end up laughing at his expense – when he gets really tired, he acts like he’s drunk, even when he hasn’t had a drop to drink.

Many times when we’ve been at a party or hanging out with friends until the wee hours, we’ve all been practically rolling on the floor with laughter because of him being loopy without benefit of a loopy-making beverage. You know the kind of laughter – the once you start, you can’t catch your breath because you’re laughing so hard kind? Fun times.

Princess Nagger has always been a comedic force to be reckoned with, even when she was younger. I know I’ve shared these videos before, but they’re well worth a re-visit (and a laugh).

In the first one, the hubby had left the hose out after watering some plants – Princess Nagger went out to play and discovered the hose. When the hubby came back up from the Back 40, she was already soaked, offering ‘free showers’ to the neighbors. I tried to sneak out with my camera, but she spied us both:

For some reason Princess Nagger has always loved being in the rain – though she’s resistant to taking a shower. Go figure. She was going between the Summer House and the house when she started dancing in the mixture of sunshine and rain – naturally, since there was water falling, she needed her pool floaty to dance with her. She started to stop when she saw me with my camera, but not for long, as you can see:

I love spontaneous comedic moments.

Which brings me to this week’s question(s):

What makes you smile or laugh? Do you have a favorite comedic moment to share?

Have a great weekend!

From Kailani at An Island Life:

In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So on Fridays let’s take it easy on posting, too. Ask a simple question…nothing that requires a lengthy response. It’s a great way to make new blogging friends!
