I tried to play a joke on Corey yesterday for Apil Fool's Day, and it failed. My mom told me what she was going to do to my sister Betsy and I copied it. Nance put a rubber band around the sprayer thing in the sink, so that when my sister turned the water on she got sprayed in the chest. I was on the phone with her when it happened. It was wonderful. Betsy yelled, "Heyyyyyyyyy! Ahhhhh! Is this a joke??????" It was so funny.
So I rigged up our sink with a green hair tie. I kept laughing at myself, thinking I was so awesome. I hated that I had to leave for rugby practice before Core Man got home to spray himself, but I kept giggling and hoping he would be wet when I got home.
I got home fully intending to play it cool. I wasn't even going to bring it up until he did. I was going to be smooooooooooth. Only I lost my nerve after about one second and I said, "Did you use the sink today? Did anything interesting happen? Did you like my April Fool's joke??"
He looked at me and said, "I have no idea what you're talking about." When I went to investigate, the hair tie was indeed removed from the nozzle. He said, "Why did you put a hair tie on the sprayer? It was dripping so I took it off."
After years of nomadic temporary employment, advanced degrees, and chocolate ice cream, a rugger with a love of knitting and a cyclist with no domestic skills signed a Ketubah and bought a house in Pittsburgh.

tee hee...i'm glad it worked on Betsy, anyway!
I'm sorry yours didn't work out. Especially since mine was such an (unintentional) rousing success!
Thank you again for your very sweet voicemail. I felt terrible after I listened to it. =)
Haha, that's hilarious! I can totally picture the conversation you had with Corey about it...
Like I said to you earlier, this is exactly how I would picture that scenario playing out. Haha.
