I've been told I'm funny, something I never really aspired to, but when the inspiration hits and people love you, what's a girl to do? I've also been told I'm intimidating (thank you, Oliver), which I assume generates from the humor and comedy I radiate.
I've recently learned a great saying, one that is a good reminder that not all that comes out of my mouth can be funny or accepted by all groups.
Again, straight from the mouth of my favorite 77-year-old volunteer: "That went over like a turd in a punchbowl."
I can't tell you how relevant that is to a strong percentage of what comes out of my mouth. We all wish we could be funny all the time, but inevitably things won't always be funny. And what's the worst that happens? It might be like a turd in a punchbowl, but apparently that's a legitimate thing, something that must happen regularly, or at least happened regularly when Al came of age in the 50s and 60s.
