April Fools - (and Kimi strikes back)

So as I have mentioned before, April Fools is quickly becoming one of my favorite holidays. It is a day where I have been given license to harass and torture Kimi. (see HERE and HERE)

I will give myself a "B+" for this year's efforts. Kimi's reactions last year were great and this year they were good too. I will just chronicle how these hoaxes played out....

About a month before April Fools: I told her that I failed one of my Oral Pathology tests. I told her if I failed another one I would have to redo this whole year of Dental School.
About a week before April Fools: So as I studied and prepared for the next test I acted really worried and after I took the test I told her that it was possible that I failed it.

The night before April Fools: I told her that some of my classmates got their score back but that I did not receive a score....she asked me what that meant and I said it couldn't be good. I had the wife of one of my classmates text Kimi and ask, "How did Jeff do on his test, I heard he was pretty worried about it?" She didn't respond....hehe.

Early April Fools Morning: I woke Kimi before I left for school and told her that I got an e-mail from my professor that said he wanted to meet with me at noon. So as I was at school Kimi was home wondering what was going to happen, I struck her with another prank...I had gotten up pretty early that morning and got a zip-lock bag, cut a corner, and taped a straw so that it came through the bag. I filled the bag with cake frosting and the squeezed the frosting into our toothpaste tube. Kimi woke up that morning and didn't turn on the lights because she didn't want to wake Trey, and....you got it....squeezed that frosting all over her toothbrush and brushed her teeth. She was really confused as to what was in her mouth and then she realized....it is April Fools! She then started to wonder if my whole test thing was a joke, more accurately, she wished it was a joke.

The Afternoon of April Fools: I got home from school and asked her if she wanted to hear about my meeting with my professor. I sat down and started to tell her that he told me that I had failed and that he gave me the option to redo the whole year or retake the coarse over the summer (meaning we wouldn't be able to go home). She interrupted me and said, "This better not be an April Fools joke!" I couldn't keep a straight face and she got mad as I laughed and laughed. She then said, "And I don't appreciate brushing my teeth with frosting!"

Later that Afternoon: I cut up a little piece of snickers and molded into a little bean looking thing. Later, I was changing Trey's diaper and yelled for Kimi to come look at his diaper. (I quickly placed the snickers piece into the dirty diaper...on a clean spot. I said "Is he pooping solid??" There was a small solid mass in his diaper. Kimi was so confused looking at it and after a while I picked it up, smelled it, and put it in my mouth and ate it. Kimi gasped and tried to utter words to stop me but it was too late. I wish everyone could have seen the horror on her face. It is imprinted into my memory and brings a smile to my face whenever I think about it.

Later in the Night: I got home from playing basketball and showered and got ready for bed. As we were about to get in bed Kimi told me not to turn on the light because she was trying to get Trey to fall asleep so she held him while we said prayers and when we were done I slipped into bed in the dark and Kimi just started laughing. I had no idea what she was laughing about. I thought Trey was doing something funny....but she just kept laughing and laughing. She turned on the lights and told me, between her laughs, to look at my face. I looked in the mirror and had powdered sugar all over my face, head, and arm. She had put it all over my pillow and I hadn't seen it in the dark. I have to hand it to her....she got me. Although, I won't forgot about the people who helped her come up with this idea.

I hope you had an equally eventful April Fools.
