A story warranted for non-face-to-face contact

I would never share this story with you in person, because I would only gain the reaction "okay..." Thank god for the internet, or I would like to call it "the venue to share stupid stories and not care what others think."

So today in the office, I was a bit tired - and do you know the point where you are tired and everything around you - every small, tiny, not usually funny thing, suddenly becomes hilarious? This was my state of being.

As I was eating a granola bar by my laptop, peeling the wrapper from the bar like a banana, I had a sudden vision - that the exposed half of my granola bar would land on the touch pad of my laptop when low and behold - it happened! It split from the bottom half of the granola bar still in the wrapper and plunked onto the laptop! But the thing is - you (or I) would expect that the whole vision would happen in slow motion - I have obviously been watching too many movies and television. But it didn't! It was qucik! A split second! A magnetic pull from my touch pad to the granola bar, the granola bar, unable to resist, time travels to the touch pad.

Anyway, after this whole "fiasco," I burst out laughing, unable to contain myself with actual tears streaming down my face. It was quite sad.
