In the beginning

A little game I like to call...Total Happiness.

You've all seen the Subway commercial for the 6 inch meatball sub. The blond walks by the security guard and asks, "So, whatcha got there?" To which he responds, "A little thing I like to call total happiness." She scoffs, "Well, you've got 'total happiness' on your shirt." He looks down defeated.

William and I have a little game we like to play when the commercial comes on. When she starts in on the, "Well, you've got total happiness-" bit, we like to cut her off and fill in the blank. Sadly, we play this game a lot (hey, they play the commercial a lot!), but I think we may have to take a break as it's effecting my husband's subconscious. At about one this morning, I was laying in bed awake (I have been having a little trouble sleeping), William rolled over and looked me dead in the eyes and said, "You've got total happiness-" He paused and I hugged him and replied, "In my arms!" His response was, "No, something something...(in audible mumble)" Then he said, "Okay, goodbye!" rolled over and started snoring. I just started laughing at him. This morning I asked him about it and he had no recollection of it what so ever! It was hilarious!

This game gets quite creative, we invite you to play along in the comments field.

Here are a few of my favorites to get you started:

You've got total happiness-

-"Hanging from your nose."

-"Stuck to the bottom of your shoe."

-"In your trunk." (with the dead bodies!)

-"Oozing from that wound."

Remember, we are trying to keep it clean!

  • That's the real challenge of this game...trying to keep it clean!
