National Do Something Undignified Day -probably created because of all of the jollification going on
April is National Soft Pretzel Month !!!!! no mustard on mine please
My neighbor got me years ago when we lived in RI... we had a new car and she knocked on my door early in the a.m. to tell me I had a flat tire... I was half way out to the car in robe/slippers when she said those annoying little words and started laughing. She was not my favorite neighbor to say the least and we were not really what you would call friends, so I kept my own little words to myself... gave her a quick little haha and headed back to bed.
I take a sourdough bread bowl with clam chowder and a cinnamon/sugar soft pretzel please!
Have you ever played a "April Fools Day" joke on anyone ?
I have to answer with this:

Extra credit: Has anyone "gotten you" on this day ?
MANY have tried, a few have done quite well with their efforts and got me VERY good.
Ok, since I let a secret slip out on the Exercise Daily Journal forum, I'll elaborate on an April Fool's joke that was only funny to one, and certainly not so funny for my mother.
The writer of the newspaper's birth announcements for this day thought it would be funny to change genders for all those born on April 1st -- which in the small town was just me. My mother was livid, more so because I was her first born as well as her parents' first grandchild, and she insisted that my father march down to the newspaper office and make them fix it. The next day there was a Stork Correction, so I have both announcements in my baby book.
I have the same little jokes from the kids. I remember a year when my hubby got a good one over on our son, though. He was about 8 or 9, and had fallen asleep when he got home from school. At dinner, I sent hubby to wake him. It was 7pm. Well, hubby thought it would be hilarious to trick him that he had slept through the night & it was 7am, time to get ready for school. We had him going up until I put dinner on the table, as opposed to breakfast! Tricking the kids is much fun!!
I woke up at 12:30pm today with it being the school holidays (that is here in England, I don't exist in the future ) so I can't fool anyone now seeing as it's the afternoon. I did find this video here though of a pretty good fooling. Seems like Kyle Kendrick isn't too hot on the idea of playing in Japan.

When I was little I replaced by dad's soap with a bar of that black face soap you get from prank shops. Oh how we laughed.

Being the gullible fool that I am, when I was at middle school one of my friends convinced me that he was psychic. Boy I felt daft that day.
