cosmic_llinOccasionally, I just laugh out loud for no reason at all.
Lately this is happening more and more often, and increasingly in public places.
This means I have to do my best to hold it in, but then I just end up smirking to myself, which is almost as bad.
I don't understand this sudden increase in unprompted mirth.
But whatever.
Of course, I also have so stop myself laughing at actual funny stuff. Like today when a woman came to my ice-cream kiosk and asked for a "Napoleon".
What I would have liked to have said was: 'I'm sorry, we don't have any diminutive military geniuses, would you like an ice-cream instead?' But of course what I actually said was: 'I'm sorry madam, we only have the flavours on display'. Pah. I'm guessing she was trying for a Neapolitan, but we don't have any of those either.
In other news, I am still being haunted by Maxine. People keep calling and texting my mobile asking for her, and it never stops, no matter how many times I tell people it isn't her number. I don't know who she even is. All I have managed to glean from her texts and phone calls is that she has at least two children and she goes to a lot of meetings... and she's really bad at updating her contact details, evidently...
