Ok, so since I just started this blog site I missed out on telling everyone about my misadventures on April Fools Day. Oh people, its good....but bordering on mean. I'm a good hearted person but if someone challenges me or dare mock me, LOOK OUT! Here is what happened. I woke up with a stuffy head and I was a little out of it as I headed up the stairs. I realized half way up that it was the day of all days and I had not prepared a single gag. What can I say, it's been a busy year.
Sam was heading down the stairs and I told him not to bother getting dressed because I just saw on the TV that school was cancelled due to a water main break. He mocked me, the little shit, he said, "That is pathetic. Can't you do any better than that?" He was on to my game. Well, I knew at that moment I had until 3PM to figure out something really good. The problem was that I was drawing blanks. Nothing. Ziltch! I was actually going to settle for the joy of Sam walking around on pins, waiting for me to pull a fast one that was never going to come. Then My luck changed.
About 2PM I went online and was checking out my friends zoomshare sites. Now, it is common knowledge that Sam rarely blogs. I checked his site expecting to find a three week old post. There it was....

I'm writing this from school!!
Howdy, y'all! I'm very excited because I'm living on the edge! My science class is in the computer lab and we're supposed to be researching for our symposium projects, but I don't feel like it (don't worry, I'll do it, I'd just rather do it at home), so I'm talking to you guys. Anyway, Angie, I've done half of my job, and maybe I'll blog again later from home to tell you how my April Fools day went. Now, I am at school, so I don't have a quote dictionary for the quote of the day. So I'll make one up. Today's quote was made by the legendary Martin Klechloken. He said "If when one's hearing is impaired, his mind is strengthened, perhaps we should wear ear plugs for the rest of our lives..." Just something for you to think about. Uh oh! Mr. Devine's coming! Just kidding! Boy was this fun! Toodaloo!

He was supposed to be doing science research in first period but he was goofing around when the teacher wasn't looking. LOL.....So I couldn't pass up a good thing. He handed it to me on a silver platter. Yesterday we got a letter from the school and the envelope had not been sealed. It was in the trash but it wasn't dirty so I dug it out and used it. I then took the letter we got and copied it so I could use the letterhead off of it. I then wrote a mock letter to his parents informing them that Samuel was involved in an incident using the school computers. I explained what he did and said that a copy of his comments were placed in his file and were available for their viewing. I then said that school policy clearly stated that any student found guilty of internet misconduct would be required to serve a minimum of one week in-school suspension and be banned from extra curricular activities. I then stated that his suspension would begin Monday April 4th and that he should report to the office 10 minutes prior to the start of school. I even signed the Superintendents name. The funny part was I spelt words wrong, added commas where they didn't belong, ect. I was trying to give him a few hints that perhaps it was a fake letter. I even changed the initials of the typist to my initials. He was so freaked it didn't really catch his eye.
I pieced together the letter, copied it, put white out on the copy to hide the lines again and then I re-copied it. It looked perfect. I stuck it in the envelope and sealed it up. I know how Sam operates so I stuck the mail on the counter and put the mock letter on the top of the pile. He always opens letters addressed "to the parents or Guardian of Samuel Schoenberg." When he came home he walked into the kitchen and grabbed the phone to call his friends. I saw him look at the letter and so I walked into the den to straighten up the pillows. I watched him open the letter and then I was trying to not laugh...so I steped out of his sight. He was so quiet so I peaked around the corner. His eyes were huge, and he was turning a little pale. When he reached for the phone I realized he was going to call his Mom so I yelled "April Fools!" He looked at me confused and said,"Huh?" I said, "April Fools!" He went,"What?" and I said, "The letter, April Fools." He started laughing, gave me a big hug, releived as hell and told me it was a good one...I had him going. He was freaking because he had to call his Mom and tell her he was in trouble. Oh don't feel sorry for the kid....he got what he deserved.
