I woke up this morning and I remembered that today is April Fool’s Day. Oh there will be no fooling Angela Calderon today. Ha…
I have my website email routed through gmail as a backup so that I can access it anywhere at anytime. So I noticed at the top of my email log in there was something that talked about back dating emails. I read it and though, oh my goodness this can’t be good, people can lie about sending emails then send it back dated and it will show up earlier in the inbox. I immediately was worried about what would happen if someone did this and I didn’t happen to check that far back to when they back dated it and I would miss the email.
SUCKER. Score 1 for Google for fooling me first thing this morning. Of course the testimonials clued me in to it being a prank.
Then I got a email from a friend who has been looking for a new car and she said that she had decided to go totally green and just get a top of the line bike instead. I asked her how in the world she was going to manage a commute from Manhattan Beach to Irvine everyday and she said, well I guess I’ll just leave early.
SUCKER. Score is now 2 for the pranksters and 0 for me.
Oh boy, yeah it gets better.
I was reading my friend Deanna’s blog and she was talking about how she was not going to be a photographer anymore, I was feeling so sad and upset because she is such a wonderful photographer, then I got to the part where she started getting silly with her prank and thought, ok I am going to Texas and kick her butt! Deanna you are a brat and you know it! 
SUCKER. Score is now 3 for the pranksters and 0 for me.
I had to get gas on my way home from the office and the man behind the counter tells me that my card has been declined and that he is going to have to cut it up because of the code that came up as he processed it. What? This is my new replacement card I just got last week, has someone drained my checking account, OMG.
SUCKER. Score is now 4 for the pranksters and 0 for me.
Didn’t I say that I *knew* it was April Fool’s Day when I woke up? The man at the gas station said he had been pulling that joke all day long on the “regulars” that he normally sees. Ha ha very funny.
When I got to my daughter’s preschool I saw one of my friends leaving with her son, she had this awful look on her face and I asked her what is wrong. She said, they didn’t call you? I said no, she said well Morgan has paint all over her hair. WHAT? We just had to get it all cut off yesterday, what happened? Her reply….GOTCHA.
Final score: Pranksters: 5 and a big fat zero for me.
Apparently I have turned in to the world’s most gullible person today.
So have some fun and check out the Top 100 April Fool’s Day Hoaxes of all time. Oh and if you want to know how this all got started go here.
Oh and I have to share a photo that blog reader Jaime shared with me after she read my story from yesterday about my daughter cutting her own hair. Her sweet little four year old daughter decided to cut her own hair back in August and she cut it in the front. Jaime says she is proud to report that her daughter is getting closer and closer every day to having a cut little bob after this tragic hair experience. She said her hair used to be down to her shoulders before she cut it. Silly girls cutting their own hair! Looks like Miss E was going for a full on mullet! Still a cutie pie though!
