My sister and I have this running joke that is only funny to us but we blame our dad for our sense of humor. We're kinda deadpan and sarcastic... just like dad. Chances are, if I say something completely bitchy and/or disgusting, I'm joking. I forget that the rest of the world may not appreciate my brand of humor. LOL

And I forgot last night in class. Ok, we were looking up the answers to random questions in different types of reference books, Google, and some electronic reference materials and the question was something like, "What navigable lake is at the highest elevation?" The answer was "Lake Titicaca". Anyway, I asked if that name has a meaning in another language because it sounds like a really unsanitary fetish....

Ok.... my sister and I would have been in tears laughing from that... To my surprise, no one said a word or even smiled. Actually, I got a few looks of disapproval. LOL Ok... Alrighty then, I've learned my lesson, I'll just work on being a belly dancing librarian and leave the standup comedy to those who are actually funny. :-P

I'm excited. I teach some classes tonight and then I'm leaving to go to Raleigh for the Aisha Ali workshop. YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is the first show I've been in where I've actually choreographed exactly what I'm doing and performed it a couple of times in other places so I know it fairly well. It is really taking the level of stress out of it for me so I can just focus on going to the workshop rather than what I'm going to do on stage.

I laughed! That is funny! I guess they just haven't heard of that fetish! Question is, how do you know it? LOL!

I think I would have died laughing at your response to "Lake Titicaca" but then I have that sort of warped dry sense of humor too!

I'm not sure if I would have laughed or freaked out and climbed on top of you. Guess it depends how thick you accent was that day.
