This Is Kristin

Ever have one of those moments happen where you wish you’d had a video camera, because it was just so funny, and you wish you could replay it for people?

Yesterday, I had one of those moments. The boys and I went to a walking trail/ creek with some friends, and we were all down by the creek, jumping across on rocks. The kids found a dead snake on the opposite side of the creek, and my friend decided he needed to inspect it for the kids to make sure it was really dead. He walks over and picks up the snake with a stick, then starts to turn around and come back across the creek, with an evil smile on his face. His wife starts yelling, “No, drop it, drop it!” I start backing up, and getting my water bottle in a position which I can throw and easily hit him. He starts stretching the stick, with the dead snake on it, closer and closer to his wife, who is not moving but yelling louder and louder. He’s laughing, and then carelessly goes to toss the snake into the creek, but instead, tosses it onto himself, and jumps backward, yelling.

That’s what you get for trying to throw a dead snake on your wife.

Maybe you had to be there, or maybe I needed a video camera to show you the hysteria of the moment, either way, it was funny to us.
