I used a qtip to clean wax out of my ear and it only pushed it in further. Then I bought 20 dollars worth of wax remover to clear it out. However all I needed was a 4 dollar ear pick that did the trick

The phone rang while I was pretending to be talking on it to avoid a conversation with someone

Silly thing...My closest friend and her daughter, went to the park with my son and I. Her 5 year old daughters favorite sunglasses fell into a muddy, duck filled pond at the park and her daughter started to cry. So, she went into the pond, fully dressed to fetch her daughters sunglasses. I took photos of her in the muddy pond and copied them and sent them to her. She really "appreciated" the reminder of her little swim.
Silliest thing I did: I made the mistake of waking my daughter up because I thought she was late for work. After I got yelled at for waking her up when she didn't have to be to work for 3 more hours, I realized she is responsible for being late, not me! Silly of me to think she needed my guidance still. It's hard to not be a 'Mom' all the time!
I had gone to another web site to see the winners list and it had a link to a youtube.com video of the Smothers Brothers. It brought back memories of how hilarious they were. I watched it and thought about old times.
my new puppy playing with our neighbor's dog
I was so anxious to wear my new jeans that I went to town thinking I looked so cool and unbeknownst to me there was a strip down the back of my leg that told my size over and over and over. All I needed to do was peel it off.
I tore up the house looking for my sunglasses, went out to the car and searched, thought I had lost them... and they were on my head. dork.
okay, so i had 1/2 a margarita at a brew pub with my husband and i totally started crying watching the woman ninja warrior show. i got all sentimental and my husband thought it was awesome. i never live those moments down.
i blogged about you here: http://alwaysagiveaway.blogspot.com/2008/08/todays-giveaways.html

The silliest thing I saw this week was the Mummy III.
Me and my 11 year old were playing in the pool and decided to make a music video in the pool to Styx Mr Roboto! Very silly but she had a great time!
The silliest thing I saw this week was teenagers dressed in goth apparel at the mall. It is too early for Halloween. LOL
The silliest thing I did this week was to mistake someone on the street as being my hubby. Imagine his surprise when I put my arms around him!

I decided to rearrange my boys room on Friday night - pretty much by myselft. It took hours.... man was that silly!
nashvillemel@comcast.net
The silliest thing that I saw this week was my extremely gruff basset hound loving on my hurt cat. Big Foot (the basset) just loved on Blackie (the cat) all day.

Hello! I stayed on the computer for 7 hours straight and the next day, my eyes were so strained and tired, I couldn't even read the newspaper or a book! Now, that was being stupid! I adore Amazon.com. Please eneter me in your delightful drawing. I really appreciate it.....Thanks, Cindi

Thank you for having this. This would be wonderful to win. The silliest thing i have seen lately was my husband with my 2 daughters. My oldest daughter just got home from cheerleading practice and love to do the cheers at home with my 2 year old daughter. My husband came downstairs with her pom poms and a wig and was doing cheers. I laughed until it hurt. It was so funny. I think my daughter was the most shocked of all!
I lost the phone 2 days ago and I still can't find it!!
Was playing tennis with some people, I heard one lady say she was Mary. When it was time for introductions, I went blank and said my name was Mary (to her). Kinda silly

I'm not sure if this is the silliest or strangest - a video online of a kitten with two faces
I work at a fabric store, believe it or not; I get a call " Do you sell fabric"??
dguffe00@leeu.edu
I live in NC. Went to the beach with family friends and girlfriend to Myrtle Beach, SC. We leave SOUTH Carolina to go home to NORTH Carolina, on I-85 North and the girlfriend says, "Shouldn't we be going I-85 South??" No honey, we want to get home to NORTH Carolina.
I fell at Wal-mart when I tried to get something for an old lady.

The silliest thing I did this week was seeing an acquaintance I hadn't seen for awhile congratulations on being pregnant. You can imagine my red-face when she said with a smile, "Oh, I'm not pregnant, I'm just fat!" Thank goodness she took it good-naturedly!

Probably the silliest thing I did this week was enter this contest.
I've been submitting comments for over a year now and haven't one a thing.
I was walking around my house making a motorboat noise for no reason. I stopped a second and thought 'what am i doing?'
I started my dishwasher before I realized that there wouldn't be any hot water for a shower for about two hours!
On the keyring to my car is a security device that allows me to unlock my car doors or lift the trunk lid before I get to the car. Well, while I was in the grocery store, I must have unlocked the trunk, because when I came out of the store, there was my car, with the trunk open, and my purse sitting there in the open waiting to be stolen. Jesus loves me though, in spite of my failings, and the purse was untouched, just not safe and secure...
Me trying to cover up all the poison ivy on my face, arms and legs on the way to the doctors. It was around 80 degrees and I had on a black Adidas track suit, beverly hills pimps and hoes hat and the big sunglasses, with flip flops. I looked like a star trying to hide from the paparazzi after a bad chemical peel.
Silliest thing I did this week is dance around the room singing silly songs at the top of my lungs with my kids. I can get away with this stuff now that I have a toddlers.
I bought a car! doesn't seem too silly, but my bank account things it is!
I had a water balloon fight w/my kids.

My son and I walked around like penguins!
I really like your blog! I'm subscribing to your feed, and I've already left comments on two other posts. I hope I get extra entries for those because I sure could use $50 to Amazon!

In the middle of a conversation with my husband, he started waving one hand in front of his face and yelling "Get out! Get out! Get out!" I thought he was having an argument with the voices in his head so I started crackin up! Turns out there was a small moth that got trapped behind his glasses and was drivin him nuts, LOL.

Spent an hour trying to find the bug that kept flying in my face, turns out that the fan was just blowing a piece of hair JUST into my field of vision. :/

After I do laundry I put the clothes in the laundry basket to take it upstairs and my dog suprised me by jumping on in the basket. I think he liked the warm clothes.
the silliest thing I did this week was dressing in the dark so I wouldn't wake my husband up. while that might seem very nice of me it wound up making me look pretty clueless. I wound up grabbing one black pump and one navy blue pump. I also put my undies on inside out. OH my.
The silliest thing was watching my son help my husband make supper. My two year old was stirring the food so fast with a spoon that it was flying all over. He was so happy to be helping and was trying so hard to stir it fast like his daddy.
samsakara@twcny.rr.com
I'm not that silly, but I let my kids jump in the pool with all their clothes on because their friend dared them. They couldn't believe I allowed it, lol.
Monday night I went to the farmer's market close to home that's open Tuesday evening 3-6 pm. When they weren't open I told my granddaughter they must have thought it was too hot that day. She said "Grandma, this is Monday" duh

I love watching the funny (silly) things my 3 year old grandson does. This week he decided he was a puppy. I went along with it but I drew the line when he dropped food on the floor and went down to lick it up off the floor.
A silly thing I did this week was... At a friends house for a big, family dinner. Saw some jello.... Shoved a big piece up my nose to impress the kids! :D (They thought it was gross :) )

My son playing outside in 90 degree weather wearing only his underwear ... and a winter beanie! Pretty funny.
When I get my bills in the mail, I always open them and write on the outside of the envelope the amount due and the due date. Evidently I was doing this to a couple at the same time, and put the date due on my phone bill one week later than the actual due date. :) I went online to pay it, and realized I was paying late!

Just today I went to Medieval Times and cheered until I was hoarse.
the silliest thing i have done all week is go around all day with my shirt inside out.
krystal82107@hotmail.com
Not a lot silly this week, unfortunately. It has been a busy week full of boring insurance work.
But I did get a batch of postcards in the mail and one had a giant coffee cup advertising a coffee shop on route 66. It has stuck in my mind ever since then bec it was just funny to imagine driving down the road and coming across that thing in the middle of the highway!
Thanks for having the giveaway!
The silliest thing i saw was a farm girl trying to horseback ride a sheep.The sheep had a small saddle but no one could stay on.
The siliest thing a saw this week was on a show called when animals attack. A bunch of people try to pull a pregnant tiger out of a tree by a rope tied around her feet thinking she was stuck, turns out she was just tired and very cranky because she turns around and lets them have it. The best part is that an animal expert had to explain that it was a bad idea!

I was reading a story in which the main male character's name was Dick and the protagonist says "Okay fine, I love Dick." I couldn't help myself--I started giggling to myself for the next 10 minutes.

Just tonight I was at a Church function. I pulled out my mini bottle of hand lotion and somehow got a blob of it on my face. A little while later, my daughter looked at me and asked what in the world was on my face. I don't know how many people saw it, but my daughter was totally embarrassed.
While swimming in the Gulf with my nieces a strange drunken old hippy waved his bathing suit in the air. Crazy dude was naked in their
We were having pizza for dinner tonight and I picked some fresh hot peppers from my garden to put on the pizza. I sliced them and put them in a small bowl so everyone could take as much or little as they wanted. Well, when it was passed to me, I filled my spoon with peppers and put them in my ice tea instead of on my pizza. Needless to say, everyone cracked up. Ya think I need some rest?
Well, I don't know if it's silly, but we had a big thunderstorm this week. I ran around unplugging everything I could think of. The next day, when I tried to turn on the TV, I discovered that the cable box was fried. Yep, I'd neglected to disconnect that!
We went to a meet and greet for Demi Lovato from Camp Rock...the Jonas Brothers Contest was that night and they had a dance contest to win tickets...a grandmother got up and danced her heart out...in the silliest and sweetest way ever to win tickets for her granddaughter...the dance was silly...the results were sweet...she WON!!!!
(we already had tickets..>GREAT SHOW!)

I saw the movie Harold and Kumar Escape From Guantanamo Bay-it was very silly!
My husband and I like to play little tricks on each and scare each other. Sometimes we'll hide around a corner in the house or stand just aside from the bathroom door and jump out and scare each other as one of us is coming out of the bathroom, making the other person jump and yell in fright! lol! Well, a couple days ago, I was hiding just around the corner of the bathroom, waiting to scare my husband. Just as the door opened, I timed it just right, and as he opened the door and took a step out, I leaped out and yelled "Boo!!!"! and we BOTH jumped and screamed in fright!!! It wasn't my husband! It was the repairman for our house we're renting!! rofl!!!! I was so embarrassed and my heart was in my throat! lol!! His eyes were huge and his mouth was wide open! lol! I apologized and tried to explain the tricks my husband and I play against each other, but I don't think he really thought it was funny. lol! Thank you for the contest!
My youngest daughter who just turned 17 has herself her very first boyfriend.
Being that she's 17, its very important (to her) that we (her parents) do nothing to embarass her! (heaven's no)
Her boyfriends name is Spencer, easy enough to remember ya?
Well for some reason I call him Sherman........why I really have no idea. So one day we were picking them up from somewhere and I, ever so happily greeted them and said Hi "Sperman" (that is a combo of Sherman and Spencer), I of course couldn't stop laughing and my daughter was absolutely horrified by her mother's major slip up! LOL
Well, I just call him Sperman now to avoid all confusion..I am a mom of a horrified 17 yr old lol
My daughter who ask me about the littering signs they have on the side of the road. I told her that if you litter, you will have to pay a $1000 fine. She than replied by saying " Well you have to be rich to litter". Kids are silly. Gotta love it.
My family did something we haven't done in a long time. We played Scattergories. My 16 yr old daughter made my sister, Mom and I about pee our pants because the letter was "H" and the category was "Toys". When it was her turn to answer she said "Honka Trucks" and we fell out laughing. She had no idea what she had done wrong and we couldn't stop laughing. We finally told her it was Tonka Trucks and she said, Whatever, I played with Barbies.

Silly, well this morning I showered, did my hair and makeup, and then went out and pulled weeds from around the pond. Now I'm sweaty, my hair is a mess,and my makeup melted off. GREAT PLANNING, HUH!

The silliest thing I did this week was when I went to work one day. I was too busy talking so I was distracted. I had my locker open and all, but I ended up putting my purse in the fridge instead of the locker without realizing it.
I win the "Idiot of the Week" award for this one!!!!
I was baking Amish Friendship Bread with a neighbor on Tuesday and we were taking turns mixing, getting ingredients and watching children. She began to pour the mix into the four bread pans and about half way through I noticed the spoon was still in the bowl (#1you are not supposed to use a metal spoon in the first place). I laughed as did she and we had the bread in the oven within minutes. About ten minutes before the bread was to be done I went to check on it and for the first time ever in my life, one of the bread loaves had erupted from the side and there was now a small loaf on the bottom of my oven. I thought that the occurance was odd and all but just laughed it off. The next morning I was slicing into the bread (about the 4th piece cut) and hit something hard with my knife......I reached in and pulled out the teaspoon that we apparently baked inside of the bread. I guess I had assumed she removed it and she made the same assumption of me. I think we have too many children.....We obviously no longer retain the ability to do anything while our children are present!
The silliest thing I did this week was call Time-Warner to fix my cable. I waited all day for them to come (they came 2 minutes before their deadline), then told me that I simply didn't have the cable turned on through the remote. Duh.
I played golf this week and saw 6 wild turkeys
I told the guy next door that I would go out to dinner with him sometime.I didn't know how to get out of it.Silly,I lost my nerve....Thanks for the giveaway!
We were getting ready to go on yet another stupid motorcycle ride this week; a long one.
Before we left, I asked Mr. Man, "Do you have plenty of money to bring along for snacks?" "Yes, I do", he replied.
"Well, let's stop and get them before we leave so we can save that money for souvenirs", I said.
Of course, HE had to bring me up on it when in fact, HE'S the one that's driving me crazy!
funny, funny giveaway. Personally, I like the grandma and car top baby story; very suiting

Got distracted while watering flowers and filled my shoe with water. Thanks for the contest.
I watched my husband install a stove for hours. He should have hired a professional. I give him an A for effort!!!!
Something silly, huh? I'm always acting goofy with my husband - making silly faces, talking funny, etc?
thanks for all the work you put into the giveaway. It must take you awhile to keep track of all the entries.
I sometimes speak with a Welsh accent for fun. It's currently my favorite accent to try to mimic.

My mom called me to tell me she had an extra coupon for 2 for $3.00 pints of blueberries. My kids love blueberries and this is a great deal. So I pack up my kids, drive to my moms, pick up the coupons, go to the store, get the blueberries, and go home. I open the door to the car and drop the blueberries all over my driveway! It was like dropping marbles all over the driveway. My kids and I chased them as fast as we could but ended up squishing more than we saved. So much for saving a couple of bucks on blueberries!
I had my family over to celebrate my grandmother's 70ith b-day any my 8 year old cousin mooned us serveral times while we were in the pool.
we awere driving home from florida and there was a man on the side of the highway, in a small town on the 95. he was wearing short mini skort thing and a tub top, walking a small dog. at least i think it was a guy.

Got out of the shower, was combing my hair and realized I forgot to rinse. It was full of conditioner.
My mother's 'seeing' eyeglasses fell into the toilet while we were in a public bathroom, so she yells for me to come and fetch them because without them she couldn't see them! All day long when we thought about it, we'd break out laughing wherever we found ourselves that day!
The silliest thing I saw this week was my cat running wildly around the house full speed for seemingly no reason at all!

The silliest thing I saw this week was when I brought my white puppy to a bonfire with me. We were making mountain pies with tomato sauce, and someone accidentally poured the sauce onto my puppy... now I have a bright orange dog!

The silliest thing I did this week? My local childrens museum has a dinosaur exhibit right now, and they have a big animatronic dinosaur outside the entrance that makes sounds and everything; so I hopped on it's back and yelled "Yee haw!" and pretended I was riding a wild bull. Definitely got some strange looks but it was fun! (till they kicked me off).
Oops! My email is smittentrek at yahoo dot ca

I went to the mall Friday night, not only was that a silly thing to do (everyone is at the mall on Friday nights) but I saw some outfits that were EXTREMELY silly. Teens wear just about anything (or nothing) these days huh?

I have been hounded several times a day by a telemarketer who will not stop calling so I went racing around my room and found a duck whistle that we got when we went on the duckboats in Baltimore and I answered the phone and really let them have it. Hopefully, they won't call back again. Thank you!
I wore a fun cap with blue fuzzy hair to the company meeeting. Everyone shook their head and smiled. They were not brave enough to wear their own funny hat. The last laugh was on them because it was lucky. I won a wii.

I think all this Michael Phelps worship is pretty darn silly.
The silliest thing I did happened on Saturday night when i was at the movies with my dad and stepmom. My stepmom is 8 years older than me and we are pretty close. We went into the bathroom together at Silverado 19 IMAX Theater in Tomball and the stalls went all the way to the other entrance on the other side of the concession stand. Dad was waiting where we went in and we came out the other way then tiptoed around to where he was and just watched him get impatient. We laughed so hard it was insane, but so much fun!
The silliest thing I saw this week was pretty great: an up close live performance by Gaelic Storm!!!!
The silliest thing would probably be when we were coming back from the Diamondbacks game last Tuesday. We were walking to the car and these 2 ladies walk up to us and ask if the game was over. I look around at all the people leaving the stadium and say yeah; like duuhh. (Wishing now that I had said no, everyone left when they heard it was raining.) It started to sprinkle when we left after the game was over and we were leaving. My brother got lost trying to find the freeway to get home and the rain just came down harder and harder. When we finally found the freeway, we were waiting for the light to turn green and lightning struck really close to the car. Half a second later the crack that followed scared all 3 of us in the car and you could feel it in your feet. As we got on the freeway, we realized that it knocked out the power in the neighborhood where we were waiting for the light to turn. We were all laughing soo hard at how high we had jumped when the lightning cracked!
It was very funny!

Watching the hillbillies where I live get drunk this weekend at our local festival was pretty entertaining
hmmm...at work, i was trying to avoid a phone call from an annoying business who calls all the time so i left the phone off the hook. little did i know that it would make this LOUD repetitious beeping noise if left off the hook for too long so the people in the nearby cubicles could hear it. good thing i could play dumb and said i accidentally knocked it off the hook. heh heh.

I went to buy stamps at the post office and then mailed my letters without putting the stamps on them!!! Nice postal worker bailed me out and got the letters back out. Too much on my mind this week! Thanks,
Lisa
The silliest thing I did yesterday was hunt for my keys in my purse all the while they were in my other hand. The worst part was when I told my husband I lost my keys; his reply, "What's that in your other hand?"
We live in the middle of a city, so we have no car. It was raining, but I had to get some groceries. I got me and my daughter dressed in our raingear, put her in the backpack carrier, walked all the way to the store in the pouring rain, and picked out all the groceries - just to find out that I forgot my wallet at home. So I had to walk home, pick up my wallet, and do the whole thing all over again.
Thanks for the giveaway!

The silliest thing I've seen is my toddler wearing a Storm trooper helmet, with his little face poking out one of the eye windows. :)
Posted on my blog at http://lifewithmyboys.wordpress.com/2008/08/11/linky-fun-2/
The silliest thing that I saw this week was our cat poop on hubby's side of the bed. This was NOT the first time either ha ha but then she did it on my side of the bed too ROFL (and yes her littler box is clean hee hee).
I took the time to make dinner (i work evenings) so husband and daughter would have it ready for them tonight - and left mine at home!
I did the caramelldansen dance. It felt and looked pretty silly, but it was fun, and surprisingly hard work

At the laudromat, the dryer ate my tokens and I lost my temper and started kicking the machine, while my 5 year old told me to stop or I would break the machine. Oh yeah, there was also a surveillance camera, so it was caught on tape.

I conned my mom into wading out into the lake with me and then pulled her in with me. The water was perfect and she wouldn't have come swimming with me if I hadn't pulled her in.
My African Grey parrot seems to be learning more and more words lately. She surprised me this week, when she said, "Pee pee and poops". She was mimicking and copying me when I take my dogs outside to do their business. I laughed!!
Silliest thing I saw was my son dancing in his karate uniform after his class...
Thanks for the giveaway!

Last Wednesday morning I got up early to bake a cake for a potluck at work. I was up in the middle of the night for a while, so I wasn't very awake when I started mixing things up. I added 4 eggs to the cake batter instead of 2, and it was all mixed up by the time I realized what had happened! I took it to work anyway...nobody noticed what was wrong.
My mother and I watched old home movies and laughed so hard we cried.
My daughter and I laughed while back to school shopping seeing a man in Victoria's secret looking around - he wasn't with a woman or anything - just by himself!
My friend's hairspray can has a warning on it that says "EXTREME DANGER".

Just tonight I looked out the window and saw a couple of teenage girls parading up and down the street in front of the house next door. They were wearing jeans and a bra- no shirts.
I stepped on a banana peel and everyone saw it..

My dog learned how to climb the attic stairs. My boyfriends band practices up there. Unfortunetly when Bear goes up he cant come down by himself and my boyfriend has to carry him down and its not easy.Well, he had just carried him down when i heard him starting to come up again so i stood on the steps with my foot out so he wouldnt come up any further. ..But i lost my balance and flew down the steps. Scared the dog(maybe he will stop climbing)and thought i broke my booty,but in the end it turned out silly instead of tragic. Very good thing. thank you:)Enjoying reading others comments!

I was in a store and needed to call someone, so I went into my recently dialed calls in my cell phone. I heard the phone ring at the store's service desk, which I was standing beside of. I said, "Oh sorry, wrong number" and the clerk looked at me and laughed.
The silliest thing I did this week was to take a two hour nap, three hours before going to sleep for the night. I stayed awake all night!

Silliest thing I can think of...Really just funny and embarrasing.
I have the same shoes in black and brown. Dressy sandals. On more than one occassion I have mistakenly worn one black and one blue one and did not realize it till someone commented on it.
People from the electricity came over for some work that had to be done at my house and they couldn't figure out what to do exactly ,then call someone else and when I looked from my window there were 3 people working and another 8 watching them.It looked funny
My DH was out cleaning the pool and adding chemicals one night, and fell in the pool, fully clothed, including his cell phone and Glock!
Of course, his daughters (11 and 15) were here visiting as their dad stripped nekkid on the patio (after he sent the little one to get his dry clothes, and she came back with two sweatshirts and nothing else for him to wear LOL. He yelled for more clothes, in just undies that now fit like Speedos (YUCK)
His daughters did not see him bare-@$$ed, thank goodness.
I took his soaking wet cellphone and prayed over it as I took it all apart, tapping water out of the keys.
I could not find my blow dryer that I had given my DSD15 to use in her room, so I looked for the warmest thing in the house...the DVR, and laid the cell phone there overnight.
PLT I saved that cell phone! As I put it back together, I kept praying it would work and it did!
OOOPS...I am signed in on my husband's Google acct LOL He doesn't have a Blogger, so MY email is diva_web (@) Bellsouth DOT Net
Tamara, the wife of Stephen that fell in the pool LOL
I actually got up in the middle of a resteraunt and danced with my 15 month old as he was practically clogging on top of the table and I couldn't resist joining him. :)
I played in mu with my son, and got all muddy, and our neighbors thought we lost our mind. I thought it would be fn to get a little dirty, and my son was delighted.
The silliest thing I did was to get lost in Orlando Florida's Theme Park and someone announcing my name on the speaker for my family to get me.
We were listening to some music yesterday and our little crazy 2 year old Savannah was running around dancing. I told her to "drop it like its hot" and she bent down a bit and started shakin her little booty. And shes been telling people since then to "drop it hot".
I saw the little boy across the street pull down his pants and poop in the driveway and then rubbed his butt up against the dog.
I tried to open my door but I was using the wrong key on my keyring. Didn't work. Thanks for the giveaway.

I was just entering a sweep and where it asked for your age it said "please limit to 3 digits"; now is that silly or what???
Thank you for the chance to win!
i wasted a whole day waiting for an e-mail and did not just call to check on it!
Dancing along to Yo Gabba Gabba with my kids.
My kids and I are silly all the time. We played pretend airplane where he flaps his arms and I tell him he's lifting off, and We danced to "Dancing Queen" together.
I ordered something online for the first time and hit the submit button three times... which resulted in getting the same order three times! I learned the expensive way that I should be more patient!

I ran around in the sprinklers with my kids. It was hot and we were being silly.
The silliest thing I did was to get tangled in the hose to my C-Pap (machine to help you sleep) and I pulled the machine off of my bedside table when I woke up.
I was really silly and posted a picture of me in my bathing on my blog! Crazy, but so far no boos. Great giveaway.

I saw my husband (58 year old)riding down the road with our two year old granddaughter on the scooter with him behind her!
I had a man come door to door selling house alarms. I entertained him by not slamming the door in his face. He told me the newest feature was that the motion sensors now weren't affected by anything under 80lbs. I told him that was great, unless a little person was robbing me...Forgive me...
Silly Thing: That would have to be seeing my cat bury himself in the laundry basket full of just-from-the-dryer clothes. He loves the smell of fresh clothes!
The silliest thing I saw this week was my parents trying to paint a bench while standing up the whole time. They finally both gave in and found stools.
My 2 year old daughter thought she would help me with my 11 month old son a couple days ago. I kept hearing her say "Blake poop" and when I looked, she had taken his poopy diaper off for me, was holding it in both hands and looking very disgusted. My son was just laughing! It wasn't as funny to me then as is it now :)

Okay, true story, honest! My dearest friend, Jennifer, was driving me to a dr appt. She was talking on the phone as we got in the car (we both know talking and driving = bad news.) So, as we got futher down her street, the call dropped. So, she looks at the phone and realized it was the cordless home phone. She had to pull over to the side, we were laughing so hard. Anyways, CONGRATS to the winner and thanks for the contest!!
I was making some lasagna yesterday and I completely forgot to put in any sauce or the bottom layer! Needless to say it was bad
The silliest thing I did this week is try following my husband home from a meeting and end up in the wrong lane...spending 30 minutes trying to get turned back around for my exit...while my husband was able to easily make the exit.

Well... I stepped on a piece of wire and had it puncture my toe. I had to go to the ER... That was rather silly...
I vainly tried to plunge our toilet and it starts coming up the tub drain.
Great giveaway! Count me in. bebemiqui82(at)yahoo(dot)com
when we thought we had mice, um... i pretended to be a cat to scare them away and ended up scaring the crap out of the kids! oops. *laugh*
The silliest thing I did this week was go to work wearing two different but very similiar sneakers.
I was in a rush and was changing my shoes when the phone rang and as I was trying to get ready, and oh well, distractions happen.
At least they were the same color.
my silly jack russell/spitz mix 'killing' his squeaky light bulb toy!

The silliest thing I have recently seen is a man walking in downtown Vancouver, BC with long thick dreadlocks. But he was completely bald on top!!!

I'm drawing a blank. I absolutely can't think of anything silly that I've done recently. Not because I haven't done anything silly, though! It's probably because everything I do borders on the preposterous most days, so it all just gets blurred together, leaving me with a feeling of being very silly, without any concrete reason why. Is that silly?
silliest thing was my english sheepdog using his mouth to open hid kennel to get in!
Silliest thing I saw was my 18 month old daughter trying to "ride" my pug after she saw people on tv riding horses - I think she thought all animals were supposed to be ridden on after that!
The silliest thing I did recently is drove an hour and a half to one of my sites to conduct an audit ... only to realize I left the master keys to the secured-entry property on my desk. Oops! no audit that day.
my husband answered our hotel room phone with "papa johns pizza" and it was the front desk calling us!!
Something silly: Yesterday, we got a package in the mail from Amazon.com (oddly enough!), and my 21 month old proceeded to wrap himself in all of the filler paper they had in the box, and just sat there giggling. Then we sat the box up on end (it was a fairly big box), and he backed himself up into it and sat there, wrapped in paper, with the end flap hanging down over his face. I got it on video!

I'm constantly amazing myself by all the stupid things I'm willing to say or do to make my nine-month-old son laugh. His laugh is the sweetest sound in the world and always makes me feel great!
I've commented on three of your posts today:
Grandma Arrested
Laundry Ugh
Teeny Tiny Fruit
Silly thing I did - dialed wrong phone number.

I really saw this, in Indianapolis, IN - a elderly man pulling a white cross bigger than he was down the street. The cross also had a wheel attached to it's base so it was easier for him to pull.
I swear this is true. I almost drove off the road when I saw it.
Walking in the woods today, my girls decided we were a family of foxes hiding from some mean other foxes, so to be safe they had to hold on to my bushy red fox mommy tail. They nearly pulled my skirt off!

My 3-year-old is learning to tell time. This morning he said to me, "What time it is? Hmmm... 8 o'clock, time to give me my crayons!" It made me crack up.

I was asked today (for the millionth time) if my twins were natural... I just told them No,they're synthetic and it's a B&@#ch to change the batteries..
My family went Geocaching this past weekend and had a great time~! This is the first time we went and we are hooked on it and can not wait to go again. If you don't know what Geocaching is check out my blog for details. It is a great hobby that the whole family will enjoy~! Thanks for having this giveaway because if I win I'm going to buy a handheld GPS for us to go Geocaching with again since I borrow a friends but need to return it this week. Again Thanks for being so generous~!
My 2-year-old (34 months) daughter always does the silliest things and has my husband and I laughing hysterically. She is the goofiest, sweetest child!
However, the silliest thing I did this week was probably starting the toaster with no toast in it and then getting angry when I heard it pop and saw no toast (only because we had just purchased this new toaster and I thought the toaster was broken already and didn't pop out the toast). It took me actually looking in it to realize I was the one who was not operating properly! And then I actually told people that I did it, too! I don't know what was sillier, the fact that I did it, or the fact that I admitted doing it! Yes well, as they say, if you can't laugh at yourself, everyone else will!!

I dreamed I was in a Hollywood movie. And I was the star of that movie.
But I'm still waiting till it comes out in DVD before I see it. :)

My baby (almost 2) started patting me on the back this week when I hold him. I guess I must automatically pat his back, so he decided that's what he should do too!
The funniest thing I saw all week was this: My young son was looking for his cat who had run underneath the couch. After much searching and lodging himself under the edge of the couch and almost getting stuck, he succeeded in retrieving the cat. When he proudly showed me what he'd done, I commented: "Yay! You found the cat! You get the prize for the day!"
Unfortunately he took me literally and started jumping up and down yelling, "Whoohoo! A prize! Yaaaay!" I felt bad for laughing but I did. And then I explained it to him and he looked so disappointed. And then I felt even worse for laughing. It was still funny though!
Watching my 8 week old german shorthair puppy chase a puppy on my tile floor. She kept getting all sideways & her feet would slide out from underneat her.
My husband is a total goof ball.
He was helping me clean and he was cleaning the kitchen for me while I tackled the living room.
I walked into the kitchen to get a drink and he was cleaning the kitchen WEARING A CLOWN NOSE!!!!! My kids got these cute little foam clown noses from a clown at a street fair we went to and my husband found one on top of the microwave and decided to clean the kitchen wearing it.
He's such a nut! Got to love him!!!
