Laughter... The BEST Medicine
Ya know... I didn't GO to Savannah to SEE Savannah. Savannah was just sort of the icing on the Friendship Cake. I went there to visit with a group of ladies that I have become SO close friends with through this wonderful world of blogging! Of course, we did do a little sight seeing - and that was FUN! But I have to tell ya... the best ... the very BEST part of the gathering was the laughter! And one night stands out above all others. Two of our little giggle-butts got going and we really feared the rest of us would get NO sleep this night! Yes! Daisy and Jen were still up giggling at 3:00 in the morning --- looooooong after I had locked them out of my room! (but not before I captured a good bit on ... pixels)It all started when Jen decided to spray paint her hair purple! (in all honesty - we had the spray on hand because the plan HAD been that all the gals would paint their hair the night I dyed mine... but somehow that night got entirely too busy and too fun, and we simply forgot to do it!) So Jen and I went out (secretly) and she sprayed her hair...
When this was done, she suddenly remembered the tongue tattoos I had bought -- also for the night of the slumber party -- which had also been forgotten! So we went into the kitchen (secretly) and she chose a tattoo!
Then we went off to find the others ... who were playing in the computer room... The Laziest Daisy of them all was in a heated SNOOD tournament with Handsome Mr. Mike! Sweet Sandy was the cheerleader! However, the fun was only getting ready to begin...
In walks Jen...
Of course... what ONE does in Savannah, must be done by all... or at least partially... so it was only a few moments before the rest of us were sporting tongue tattoos also!
Now mind you... if it were not for the fact that Sandy and I both used the tattoos too, we would have sworn that they were laced with crack! (we know they weren't - because imagine this - Sandy and I stayed sane!) From this moment forward Jen and Daisy were a RIOT!
Over the course of the week, these two had developed
their own "sign language". As Jen explains it "neither one
of us understands it - but we have it!" They proceeded to
speak their unintelligible sign language to each other for
the next several hours !!!

Sandy and I finally got so tired we could hardly see straight and we went to bed! I was laying in bed reading, and had JUST fallen asleep (was sort of in that inbetween stage between reality and dreamland...) when I suddenly had TWO other people lying on top of me in my weeee itty bitty little cot of a single bed!!! Truly! I was sleeping on the trundle part of a trundle bed - perfect for just ME - but not so perfect for THREE! Thankfully the bed did NOT collapse as I would have hated to have to give Sandy THAT news in the morning!!! LOL! I squirmed out of the mess (oh yes - they were TICKLING me!) OY! (total conspiracy, I tell ya!)
In an attempt to calm themselves they took a deep breath
and tried a moment (brief moment) of meditation...
