Oh, the Laugh!!!

One of the reasons that I have truly gotten a kick out of doing this blog is the Laugh. I originally set out to post ultrasound videos that had gotten too big to email to family. Then it morphed into telling funny stories about Charmaine and the pregnancy. This, somehow, turned into more antics centering around me. (How does this stuff happen to me?!?!?!) Overall my main focus has been to try to keep the GolfCart's spirits up amongst all the back pain, GI distress (upper, people!), and the dwindling amounts of urine her bladder can contain. But what I have noticed recently is that, after every post, I want the GC to read it. Not later, not in a minute, right now- while its fresh off the press. I want to see her laugh... But I don't want her happy per se (I mean I do but), I want to see the actual laugh!

Now this is no ordinary laugh. This is no short snicker or a timely guffaw. No ha ha. This is a laugh that would make Ol' Saint Nick proud! A full out belly roll!!! I have been studying its origin for some time now, trying to figure our what makes it tick. The subtle nuances. This is what I have discovered:

I think it starts somewhere in her extremities. Her ankles start to kick inward, which then transmits motion up the thighs. The arms start to get in the act as well. I think this is a ploy to try to build momentum to move the GC. Then, once the point of no return is met, once Newton is satisfied, it happens!!! The belly starts to wiggle and shimmy... jitter and bounce... Then, once it gains momentum, its off ... Everywhere!! It is uncontrollable!!! I mean, you can see this movement through clothes, through windows, through tables!!! It's astounding!!! In fact, NASA called the other day, they could see it from the Space Shuttle! It sometimes even shakes "like a bowl full of jelly!!" (This is the point where I envision the BY inside laughing as well.) Truly an amazing site to behold!! Beautiful.

This is my goal; what makes this thing tick; what I shoot for with the blog. I have actually been about to hit it, especially with the Sears fiasco and Disability testing. I think she even cried during the Disability one. (She didn't pee though!!! Hmmm) It's like a drug.... I can't get enough.

Ahhhh!
