You Just Had To Be There

Have you ever been somewhere where you are mixed in with a group where everyone is in on the joke or story except for you because you weren’t present during the particular incident? And all you hear from everyone is “Oh, you just had to be there! It was so funny!” So, you are left standing there trying to visualize what everyone is talking about and throwing in a couple of forced laughs to feel like you are apart of the conversation. Well, here is my attempt at trying to get everyone “in on the joke” and hopefully, you will find it as HILARIOUS as I did.

Last night, Zenon and I were watching TV and unwinding from a long work day. It was around 9:30 to 10:00 p.m. and the load of the day was starting to take its toll. Now all of you know when you are at this point in your day, simple things can turn extremely funny quite quickly. I was sitting on the couch and Zenon got up to get some water. For no reason, he decided to pull up his shorts WAY above his waist, poke out his stomach, squint his eyes and start talking like the cartoon, Mr. Magoo. Well, you can imagine…. I lost it! I couldn’t stop laughing. I am hoping the picture will tell the story.

And, if you don’t think this is funny, well then, I guess “you just had to be there.”
