Hump Day

Halfway there, ladies. In celebration, I have a few funnies to share with you.

First, is this cartoon. My mom sent me an email with a dozen or so "gas prices" cartoons, but this one was my favorite. I wear Chanel No. 5, so I found it to be particularly funny -- especially since I savor every drop.


The second funny I found last night while researching in the Scholarship Zone. I used one of these search sites that matches the student's interests/qualifications/career goals with scholarships. For some reason, this scholarship popped up as a match for my son. I suppose it could be any one's match, so I don't take offense.
Here are the qualifications:
"Applicants must attend a high school prom as a couple in the spring wearing the most original attire that they make from duct tape."
And here are a few of last year's entries. While funny, it's fairly pathetic. I think it's a sign of how desperate these kids are to pay for college -- or like Doug said, "People will do anything for money."


On a different note, I have to have a stress test and echo cardiogram today. Can I tell you that I'd rather eat dirt. Really, I would. I had to go buy a pair of shoes just to walk on the treadmill. That's how much I don't walk for exercise -- I did not even own a pair of shoes. My idea of a walk is a stroll, swinging hands with my six-year-old, on a leisurely summer evening -- no speed walking here. Hopefully that means it won't take long for them to get my ticker going fast enough to check it out. Think of me and have pity on me, would you?
