It was on like Donkey Kong in my house yesterday and the pranks will continue today as my wife seeks her revenge. Will this ever stop? In time I hope they do because they can get out of hand at times, but mine are all in fun, at least I hope.
The wife
Anyone following along knows about the pranks my wife has pulled on me even before Halloween arrived. The lost handbag with thousands of pesos and all her ID's got me rather good. The prank had me tearing the house apart looking for her handbag and money. Ooooooh, she got me there.
Ringing the gate door bell signaling a customer at our sari sari store when she was out and about, and while I was in the shower, got me as well. It was her, the rascal. I left a water trail on the tiled floor and answered the door wrapped in a towel. Grrrr.
The pranks considered
I thought of several pranks to pull on her like cutting up hot dogs to look like fingers and using a little slice of an onion for a fingernail, then using red dye and Karo syrup to make movie blood. That was too much work so I ditched that idea.
I thought of making a bat from construction paper and tying it to the inside of the ref but had no black paper. When she opened the ref it would have come flying out at her. Ditched that idea, too.
I also gave up on the idea of printing out a selfie and putting it inside a jar filled with green liquid (water and food coloring) next to her morning coffee cup.
The failed prank
Last night when she came home from visiting a friend we ate dinner. I told her the meal gave me heartburn. We had no #Tums so she said to drink some baking soda and water. I just went into the kitchen and faked that.
Later, as I sat at my computer writing and watching episode 8 of "Squid Game," I faked a heart attack during a scene and fell on the floor groaning and writhing in pain.
She immediately leaped to the rescue and then yelled, "Prank!" It worked for about 2 seconds, so I considered it unsuccessful. I didn't get her good enough. She said the reason it failed was because my booty was up in the air. lol
The successful prank
I knew she would use the comfort room before long so I placed some red food coloring in the toilet bowl. Aha!
It was quick to set up and inexpensive. If you use this, pour a little bit, like 5-7 drops or more) in the tank so when the person flushes it will pour into the toilet bowl.
Anyway, she freaked out! "Hey! What is this!!!"
"Prank! I yelled in her face. She laughed but I saw her eyes twinkle with a hint of revenge to come.
The pranks in progress
I know she's going to get me today at least once and likely a few times. Therefore, I have to be ready to strike back boldly.
I have a couple more ready to unleash on her.
First, I'll put salt in her Mogu drink.
Second, since our room stays dark when she and my son nap, I have a scary mask with eyes that light up and flash. I'll place that next to her face propped up on a spare pillow. I'm hoping that elicits a blood-curdling scream and hopefully not a rare curse word.
Third, when she showers after swimming, I'll write, "I was watching you shower, my sexy dear!" on the mirror with rubbing alcohol. When the mirror steams up from the hot water and she exits the shower, she'll be able to read the message plain as a newspaper. Hahahahahahahahahahaha.
Anyway, a lot more fun in store today. Be careful of your prankster's tricks today.
God bless and keep you safe, as always.
