April Fools, 2008

Beforehand: What are your plans for the day? What sort of foolery do you have in the works? How will you avoid becoming an April Fool yourself?

Afterward: Well? How did it go?

(By special request of our New Zealand friends at Muse Academy South, for whom days start earlier than they do in blog time.)

    No plans. Hopefully no one will plan one for me.

    I hate hate hate April Fool’s day.

    HATE IT.

    It puts me in a bad mood for my birthday, which is the day after.

    And I’m too honest (I’m not going to say I’m too nice – that’s not totally true) to fool anyone else, but I seem to be the target of plenty of fools. In 5th grade I asked Pan to tell me all of her fools beforehand so I could be prepared – I am really not tolerant of those things, which is probably why people do them all to me. :)

  3. I’m ambivalent about it myself. On the one hand, Muse and the blog stand for knowledge, clarity, and honest dealing. On the other hand, there’s Kokopelli…

    Plans? Hm… I wish I had study hall tomorrow. Then I could pretend to go to a class I don’t belong to. Like Math. Wait — no — why would I WANT to go to math??? *is frightened* :shock:

    In the 60’s, there was an earthquake in Alaska on 1 April and the people were sent tsunami warnings, but they ignored them, thinking it was an April Fools joke and a lot of people died.

    urg my arpril fools joke on my teacher didnt work. well actually I didnt eve attempt it because she was really stressed out and I felt bad for her. I was going to pretend I had lost my voice and that the doctor said I wouldn’t be able to talk normally by Monday (which is the day we are putting on merchant of venice). But since the show is turning out to be a flop, I took pity on her and watched as she yelled at people

    I guess the joke is on me this April Fool’s. I don’t get to come home until about 9:20 pm. I have RDE and then my dad is picking me up and taking me to karate, and then my mom is taking me and Kris to guitar, and then I get to come home.

    I like the Disneyfication.

    Ah, mom made a “cake” that was a mixing bowl turned upside down and spread with cream cheese and jam, and then told dad to cut a piece. :lol: It was pretty funny, even though dad guessed what she had done.
    Dad works at a natural gas company (hold the jokes, please) and one of the things he has to do when customers don’t pay their bill is turn off the gas and leave a note on the door. Today he considered turning off the gas at the office buildind and leaving a note, but didn’t have the time.

    I told Mom I was pregnant
    I told Mr. Correll that my music was for a tamborine, not a flute
    I told at least half the Plastics that they has something on their face
    I told Carly that I killed the tech crew and they were in the closet next to her*
    I told Dad that I had failed allmy grades and I was being expelled.
    I told Katie that I was moving to Nebraska
    I gave Hannah the Rejection Hotline
