    My April fools joke.

    This one isnt really that funny, but as I thought it wouldn't work, and it ended up working very well, I will share it. Around dinner time I gave my mom a call, and when she answered I said "mom, I have to tell you something you aren't going to like." "Oh boy", she said, "what did you do?" "Um, well, I dropped out of school and I moved to Colorado." long pause, "Apil fools" I yelled. long pause. "YOU son of a... Im going to get you back so bad. But it will have to wait cause I am in a meeting, so I will call you back. Bye."

    A few hours later I get a voicemail, "hey I am just calling you back to let you know that the next time you come home I am going to beat the shit out of you with a big stick, you had me really scared there." I was rolling on the floor at this point. My mom is not a skier and just does not understand my need to get out of this state and be a bum for a few years.

    It really feels good to get her this year because she has gotten me bad a few times and I owed her.

    when she called you back, you should have told her you were kidding about that being an april fools joke, and that you only told her that to soften the blow. Explain your reasons why you needed to do it, wait for her to get really upset, and then tell her you were just pulling her leg as you come into the house.

    now that would have been good.

    You could really get her next year and actually do it.

    Yeah, do like my brother when he dropped out of Tulane:
    "Hey, Dad, can you guess where I am?"
    "Um, New Orleans?"
    "Nope, I'm in Lahaina, Maui!"
    "Um, April Fools, right?"
    "Nope."
