April Fools!

I'm deciding that I really like April Fools. Last year I got Kimi pretty good (click here) so I thought I would try it again. Here is what I did.....I set up 4 pranks:

#1. I set her alarm on her phone to go off at 5:00 a.m.

#2. We have a shampoo bottle and conditioner bottle in our shower that look exactly the same except for they are both right side up and the colors of the lids are different. So... I switched the caps yesterday. (Kimi heard me doing this because it apparently makes quite a noise taking those caps off....and was drilling me as to what was going on. I made something up and the prank was set and safe.)
#3. I took the bar of soap and coated it with Kimi's clear fingernail polish. You know...so when you go to lather up....nothing happens. #4. I stitched together one leg of her underwear and placed in her drawer where it was sure to be the one to be picked in the morning.
She figured out #1 before she went to bed by noticing the tiny alarm icon on here phone and just thought that it was weird that her phone magically set itself for 5:00 a.m. Who notices that?

#2 and #3 worked as planned....#2 succeeded in connecting that prank to the phone alarm and she realized that the April Fools tormenting was on. It also prepared her for #3. The best part is coming up.... If you know Kimi, you know she is a little grumpy in the mornings and I don't think she was extremely happy about the pranks. I would guess she was somewhere between annoyed and tired. Anyway, the whole time she was in the shower I was laying in bed laughing to myself as I hear her get a new bar of soap etc. etc. Her plan was to come and get dressed and go on like nothing had happened.....like my pranks didn't work or something. So she comes out and ignores my smiling face and grabs her underwear and tries to put them on. Review #4. After a little struggling and stumbling she throws them at me and says, "I'm going to kill you!" ….I haven't been able to stop smiling.

Oh, and I told her there were a lot more pranks planned so, as we speak, she is probably at work worried about what is coming next. What a great holiday.
